Flash flood warnings ⚠️

Anywhere else besides Garden Grove? It's supposed to rain tonight and I need to get my puppy and I a room.. oh and did I mention that I adopted a puppy? Well... she adopted me.. she was all tied up to the back of a truck covered in ants and hadn't had food or water in what seemed like days... so I did what any normal person would do and I took her and gave her love and food and affection and everything else she could possibly need... but tonight we are in a super tough spot and I dont have a room for her. I feel like I'm failing her to be completely honest... and I don't think I'll be able to forgive myself for this one if my poor baby isn't inside safe from the upcoming storm/rain/cold..

I would have called animal control on the abuser.
You may have saved this pup, but they will do it again.
Abuse of animals should be punishable by stoning.

You’ll be totally fine in Garden Grove, you’re not in a flash flood zone, more like a "my street's a temporary lake" zone. It’s more about puddles that overstay their welcome than anything dramatic. Honestly, your outdoor plants might suffer from overhydration more than you will.

Garden Grove, like Huntington Beach, is super low and close to sea level, so yeah, things can get soggy during big storms. But for context: the last *real* flood was way back in 1983/84, we were literally jetskiing from our house on the bay to The Wedge. It was wild... but also kind of awesome. Not the norm, though!

So breathe easy.

Be safe. Don’t drive through floodwaters unless you’re certain they are shallow. A lot of people screw up by driving through water that is a lot deeper than they think it is and need to be rescued.

If I remember correctly six inches of flowing water can knock an adult off their feet and twelve inches can sweep a car away.

Unfortunately I’m too far away to help the puppy. Good luck.

On the dog, good for you in picking up an abused dog:

HOWEVER

Did you take pictures of it's state when you rescued it?

Have you taken it to a Vet (or a fire station, animal shelter etc) to see if it's chipped?
Its FREE

What might happen if the owner comes looking & presses charges for theft?

if it comes down to it, it might be a your word against theirs.

If no pictures, take it to see if it's chipped to avoid potential issues.

Best of luck.
