most sport utility vehicles and pickups. Take a different Route to
reach your destination or wait until the water recedes. Remember...
most flood related deaths occur in automobiles.

To report flooding... have the nearest law enforcement agency relay
your report to the National Weather Service forecast office in Tulsa.
