Do you own property? Does it flood? Do you live in a place where a rapidly forming storm may cause flooding?

I was weather-status neutral until I bought a house that has flooding challenges. Knowing that enough rain that could trigger flooding helps me avoid surprise cleanups and property damage.

So what do you do with the information that your house is about to flood? Do you have a special flood prevention technique that you can only put into action when you know the rain is coming?

Emphatically no, as someone who cares about avoiding chronic health problems for myself and my family.

Even water-damaged concrete is enough to drive CIRS. Been there, done that.
