Elevate Whatever You Can
Sweat gave more advice, “Paint cans or five gallon buckets can support and elevate your furniture if you are going to get water in your house.” He continued by saying, “Wear clothes to bed. Nothing looks worse than seeing people on the news in waterlogged nightgowns and boxer shorts. Plus, it is helpful [when you’re] slogging through the water at night.”

An Important Warning
Sweat continued with a critical remark about the plugs and sockets used in homes. “If you get water up to your electrical outlets, or you evacuate, trip the main breaker,” he cautioned. “A volunteer was electrocuted and died here walking in knee-deep water due to [the] power being on at a house he was going to check on.”
