Nevada

July is flood awarness month

Floods in Nevada are common when we get rain

The ground gets so dry here because we do not get a whole lot of rain.  When we do the ground can not soak it up fast enough.  So we have water running off the dirt into the roadways.  Every year when we have big rain storms people try to drive on through the water.  Then the firetrucks have to come and pull them out.  Last year the firetruck got stuck in the middle trying to rescue a lady.

I have added here some good links to find out more on flood safety and preparedness,

For current weather alerts go to the National Weather Service:

Lets all have safe driving if a heavy storm hits, avoid all areas that may flood and yes even the Famous Las Vegas strip gets flood waters
