Flood Warnings

Advantages

The impact of flooding is reduced
Warnings give people time to move possessions upstairs, put sandbags in position and to evacuate

Disadvantages

Warnings don't stop a flood from happening
Living in a place that gets lots of warnings could make it difficult to get insurance
People may not hear or have access to warnings

Evaluation

The Environment Agency warns people about possible flooding through TV, radio, newspapers and the internet
