Tropical Storm Cindy Hits The Tri-State

Heavy rains and flooding are expected today with rain ending early this evening. The National Weather Service warns you to stay away from flood waters.

Basic flooding safety tips from ready.gov.

Just 6 inches of moving water can knock you down, and 1 foot of water can sweep your vehicle away. If there is a chance of flash flooding, move immediately to higher ground. Flash floods are the #1 cause of weather-related deaths in the US.

Remember, NEVER drive through floodwaters.
