Flooding - it's raining hard and has been for a few days.
You live in an area prone to flooding - check Environment Agency maps if you don't already know
The water in the local stream or river is rising. Local roads are beginning to get submerged to kerb level.
Smart phone klaxon sounds - "evacuate, evacuate" Those who haven't worked out that there is an imminent flood are doomed. Will the klaxon save them.
Doubtful - they are the same folk who having been told there is 6-12" of snow on the way assume supreme driving talent will avoid a cold night on the motorway. Ride e-bikes without helmet assuming brain damage happens to other folk. Regard a hammer as the solution, not the problem.
