Every time it rains for days and days on end, I always wonder if it's time to start building an arc, just like Noah. But, that's probably me and my big imagination. However, during a hurricane, inland flooding is no joking matter. Inland flooding can affect people hundreds of miles inland, and can cause serious injuries and death.
In order to protect you and your family, you must research and find out whether or not your home is located within a flood zone. These maps can be found on county and city websites. If you do live in a flood zone, it is pertinent to obtain flood insurance, just in case.
