Hey Yall

The town i am currently living in is ina vally surrounded by mountains. A river runs through the valley and THe town is between the river and a mountain, witha brige crossing the river.

RIght now some major rain has come through for the last few days and the river has risen very quickly and right now(30 minutes ago) we recieved news that some major damns up river are about to break, which means the bridge will prob be wiped out and at least half the town under water(i live at the lowest end of town). My first instinct was to make for the mountains on a mule, but there have recently been very bad landslides in the mountains and alot of peope are dying there.,

I have never been in a water related disaster like this and need some feedback.

I am buying gas for the generator,
dry food,
batteries,
spare ammo,
emergancy medical supplies(sutures anesthesia etc...
have my backpack and generator set up and ready to move fast(the generator is light).

anything else i am missing?
Am i making the wrong choice by staying in town?
