Taking Action
When flooding is possible, as it is in this situation, what should you do? What actions should you take? Select all that apply, then click Done.
The correct answers are A and C.
When flooding is possible, you should issue warning to regions in danger, using print, online, and broadcast media, as soon as possible. Being proactive is important; it's better to take action than to assume that someone else will do it. You should also contact the region's hydrological management structures and give them an early warning that more rainfall is expected in the region. Waiting for them to contact you would lead to the loss of valuable time and could undermine their ability to properly manage an emergency situation.
