With the remnants of Tropical Storm Allison opening the 2001
hurricane season (June 1 to Nov. 30) for Georgians, the
University of Georgia has reactivated its “Storm and Excess
Water” Web page (www.ect.uga.edu/storm/).
The page is a product of the UGA College of
Agricultural and Environmental Sciences and state
climatologist David Stooksbury. It is also linked from the
college’s drought
page.
The “Storm and Excess Water” Web page has tips on what to do
before and after flooding. Suggestions for preparing for flooding
are available at
www.ect.uga.edu/storm/content/prep.htm.
The Southeast River Forecast Center has river stage forecasts at
www.nwsserfc.noaa.gov/river.htm and rain/flooding forecasts
