Flash Flood Emergency including Meridianville AL, Moores Mill AL and Hazel Green AL until 6:00 PM CDT

[NWS Huntsville @NWSHuntsville]

NEVER drive or walk into floodwaters. It is impossible to know how deep the water is just by looking at it. Turn Around Don’t Drown! https://t.co/qgPvwFFPZd #WeatherReady

[NWS Huntsville @NWSHuntsville]

NEVER drive around barricades into floodwaters! Most flood fatalities are vehicle-related. It takes only 12 inches of fast-moving water to carry off a small car and 18 inches of water to sweep a larger vehicle away. Turn Around, Don’t Drown! https://t.co/qgPvwFFPZd

Flash Flood Warning continues for Huntsville AL, Madison AL and Fayetteville TN until 5:00 PM CDT

CPR & AED Awareness Week ❤️

In a cardiac emergency, every second counts. CPR and AEDs save lives and knowing how to respond can make all the difference before first responders arrive.

This week, we encourage everyone to learn about these lifesaving tools and the important role they play in our communities. Being prepared isn't just about weather emergencies—it's about being ready to help when it matters most.
