A Flood Watch has been issued for the State of Connecticut. The entire state is under this flood watch with many areas already experiencing some flooding.

Here’s what to do:

Ensure you have emergency alerts turned on your phone incase you area experiences flash flooding.

Check your local weather channels for updates.

Go to https://t.co/Tjd1Uyf91z to see the most accurate, up-to-date watches and warning issued for our area.

Never drive or walk through flood waters. Flood waters are deceptive and can sweep you or your car away. Turn around, don’t drown!

[Connecticut Department of Transportation @CTDOTOfficial]

The National Weather Service has issued a #flashfloodwarning throughout CT into the evening. Remember to turn your headlights and wipers on, drive slow, and stay alert. If you encounter a flooded roadway, for your safety, do not attempt to drive through it. #CTDOT #WeatherAlert
