It's not too late for communities, businesses, and homeowners to arm 
themselves with electric generators and flood-cleanup pumps before the 
spring flooding season arrives. We're hitting the low point in the year 
for temperatures, which means we're not that far away from flooding 
caused by snowmelt and runoff, not to mention tornado season.

Having the tools to start recovery (and fight floods) without waiting 
for government assistance could help get life back to normal life faster 
than waiting for official help to arrive. Of course, we hope that 
adequate flood preparations like levees, flood gates, and portable dams 
have already been taken -- but it's rare to pass through a flood season 
without discovering at least a few holes in the defenses.
