Approved emergency declaration for parts of California.

Part of a powerful atmospheric river known as a “Pineapple Express” — for the warm, subtropical moisture it brings from Hawaii — this latest storm will speed the melting of the enormous snowpack that has built up in higher elevations.

The resulting run-off threatens to aggravate already serious flooding.

The Rapid H2o flood control device can divert flood waters and protect against flood damage. When flood waters rise, the device can create a barrier to prevent water from entering homes or businesses. This can help protect against property damage and reduce the risk of flood-related health issues.

The Rapid H2o flood control device is a promising next-generation flood control and water storage solution. Its large capacity, easy filling, and gives protection against flood damage make it a valuable tool for communities that are at risk of flooding.

The Rapid H2o flood control device has several potential benefits for people during and after floods. Here are some ways in which it could help:

1. Water storage: The device can hold up to 1350 gallons of water, which could be used for various purposes such as washing clothes, flushing toilets, cleaning, and providing water for farm animals. Having a reliable water source during and after a flood can be crucial for meeting basic needs and maintaining hygiene.
2. Easy filling: The device can be quickly filled from fire hydrants, fire trucks, and non-portable water trucks, which can be helpful in areas where access to clean water may be limited.
3. Individual use: The fact that each home or camp can have its own Rapid H2o flood control device means that people can have their own water source, without having to rely on centralized distribution systems that may be overwhelmed during a disaster.
4. Safe storage: The device can help store non-potable water, which can be used for non-drinking purposes such as cleaning or bathing. This can help reduce the risk of contamination of other water sources, such as drinking water.

Overall, the Rapid H2o flood control device could help people during and after floods by providing reliable flood protection and can be used as a source of water for basic needs and reducing the risk of water-related health issues.

The Rapid H2o is a temporary barrier and can take various forms, depending on the location, size of the area to be protected, and the level of protection needed.
