You can count on us to respond quickly to storm damage emergencies in Jefferson County!

Colorado’s monsoon season runs through July, August, and September each year which causes some hail, heavy rain, flash flooding, and lots of cloud-to-ground lightning strikes. Our local Golden, Wheat Ridge and Evergreen teams are on call and ready to respond to flooding emergencies 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Flash flooding safety is critical during the monsoon season. Here are some flash flooding safety tips from the National Weather Service:

• During periods of heavy rains, stay away from flood-prone areas such as stream beds, drainage ditches, and culverts
• Move to higher ground if flooding threatens your area
• If you live or work in flood-prone areas, remain alert during periods of heavy rain
• Be especially cautious at night as it is harder to recognize flood dangers
• Never drive your car into water of an unknown depth. Most flash flood deaths occur when people drive their vehicles into flood waters. Remember: Turn Around Don’t Drown!
• If your vehicle stalls, abandon it immediately and seek higher ground. Flood water may rise quickly, cover the vehicle, and sweep it away.
• Stay out of flooded areas. The water may still be rising and very swift. A rapidly flowing stream can sweep you off your feet and sweep your vehicle downstream.
