Flash Floods - "During" -
During:
Be aware that flash flooding can occur. If there is any possibility of a flash flood, move immediately to higher ground. Do not wait for instructions to move.
If you must prepare to evacuate, you should do the following:
Turn off utilities at the main switches or valves if instructed to do so. Disconnect electrical appliances. Do not touch electrical equipment if you are wet or standing in water.
Secure your home. If you have time, bring in outdoor furniture. Move essential items to an upper floor.
Be aware of stream, drainage channels, canyons and other areas known to flood suddenly. Flash floods can occur in these areas with or without typical warnings such as rain clouds or heavy rain.
If you have to leave your home, remember these evacuation tips:
Do not walk through moving water. Six inches of moving water can make you fall. If you have to walk in water, walk where the water is not moving. Use a stick to check the firmness of the ground in front of you.
Do not drive into flooded areas. If floodwaters rise around your car, abandon the car and move to higher ground if you can do so safely. You and the vehicle can be swept away quickly.
Do not camp or park your vehicle along streams, rivers or creeks, particularly during threatening conditions.
Teach your kids and pets how to swim.
Pancake and I had hoped to have a peaceful Sunday morning hoping for some solitude with the ducks and geese at the park. We took a couple of breakfast sandwiches and headed out (a 10 minute drive). We were intercepted by some strategically placed cones and greeted by a very nice police officer who'd asked us to turn around and gave directions for the detour. via Johnson Road.
He said 4 people were injured in one car and two in the other. He said they crashed into a tree. Note there was no ice on the road and it was only misting. The people were taken to the hospital. No one died at the scene.
We stopped along the way to snap some quick shots. We never made it to the park.
The lady of the fountain carries a fatted goose and is the centerpiece of a small fountain fed pool. This pool is among the larger works of Rittenhouse Square Park. #LetsGuide Philadelphia

Cheltenham Wetlands Park was once part of the U.S. Naval Radio Station, Cheltenham, Maryland. It was commissioned in 1939.
“The original antenna fields, comprising creosoted wood telephone poles and metal antenna towers, were located in the acreage surrounding the buildings. All metal antenna poles have been removed from the installation. Some abandoned creosoted wood poles remain in the wooded and swampy sections of the installation.
Established as a radio receiving station before World War II, the installation's mission evolved to administration during the Cold War era.”
