We hit the Colorado River for intensive swift water rescue training, sharpening the skills required to keep our community safe during flash flood emergencies. 🌊
With Southern Nevada’s monsoon season in full swing through September, heavy rain can quickly flood streets, parks, trails and washes, creating dangerous conditions within minutes. Remember never to walk or drive through floodwaters. Just six inches of moving water can knock a person off their feet, and even shallow water can sweep a vehicle away.
Stay safe this monsoon season; if you encounter floodwaters, remember: Turn Around, Don't Drown.
