There are flood conditions in: Central Texas (Kerrville, San Angelo, Georgetown) Chapel Hill, North Carolina Ruidoso, New Mexico Sallisaw, Oklahoma Fort Smith, Arkansas Chicago, Illinois This is a good time to teach an important skill. How to be rescued from moving water or whitewater. If you find yourself in moving water float on your back (nose and toes in the air), keep your feet out in front of you with a slight bend in your knees so that you can absorb the shock of anything you might have to bounce off of. If you're the person in the water a trained rescuer will yell "Swimmer." That's your name in a rescue situation. If they yell Swimmer, assume they're talking to you, make eye contact and look and listen for commands. They will point positive, meaning, they'll point where they want you to go. They might also yell, "Swimmer, swim to me." At that time, they are trying to get you to move closer to them as they make their way to you. Or in a different kind of rescue they might be on land preparing to throw a throw bag to you. A throw bag has a length of rope inside a small bag the size of a football. They will throw the bag of rope over your head. Don't try to catch the bag, catch the rope with two hands. Don't wrap the rope around your body. Put the rope over your shoulder using both hands, roll onto your back, and allow the rescuer to pull you to shore. Stay frosty and stay safe friends. Share this with those you love.
