Answer:

Flooding is one of the most destructive natural hazards. Learn how to minimize your risk.

Explanation:

Before a flood

One of the biggest ways to protect yourself and your property is to prepare ahead of time. This includes:

Avoid building in a floodplain—an area especially prone to flooding during heavy rains.

If you do live in a floodplain, consider buying flood insurance to help with losses if, and when, a flood occurs.

Construct barriers (levees, beams, floodwalls) to stop floodwater from entering your home. Sandbags can provide a temporary levee in an emergency.

Seal walls in basements with waterproofing compounds to avoid seepage.

Pay attention to weather forecasts. When heavy rain or storms are forecasted, listen to the radio or television for information on flooding risk.

What’s worse—a flood watch or warning? A watch means flooding is possible. A warning means flooding is occurring or will occur soon
