Monitor Local Flood Guages

Regularly checking these gauges and the tidal gauge in Galveston County allows for necessary precautions in case of rising water levels. The Seabrook Emergency Management page provides additional information, including how to sign up for emergency alert notifications.

Other Safety Tips:

  • Learn the safest route to higher ground from your home or business.
  • If authorities advise evacuation, leave immediately and go to a safe shelter.
  • Turn off electricity at the main switch before leaving, and be cautious of gas leaks.
  • Avoid walking through flowing water, as currents can be deceptive.
  • Do not drive through flooded areas; "TURN AROUND DON'T DROWN!"

Recovering from flood damage can be challenging. Resources from FEMA, the Federal Trade Commission, and the State of Texas Attorney General’s Office provide valuable information to help homeowners navigate the recovery process.
