flooding-sooner or later nature will produce something that will beat even the
strongest defences.
Warning people of this danger is very important if we are to
prevent the greal loss of life seen fifry-three years ago. Indeed if the Flood
Warning system that currently exists had been around on that eold, stormy night
in January 1953 ,many lives would have been spared.

1995 from the police who had to go door to door or sound alarms to get the news
not.The service is being constantly improved and a combination of better
technology and increased investrnent following the Easter Floods of 1998 has
led to the creation of Floodline and an autornatie(自動(dòng))messaging
systenl that can warn thousands of people in very little time.
The Flood Warning team in Kent has also sent letters to the
people living close to the rivers or the sea and invited them to join the
AVM(automated voiee messaging)systern. Anyone chooeing to take up this free
service will receive a recorded message directly to their home, business or
pager telling them of the level of warming, giving them as much time as
possible to carry out their flood plan and save iterns that cannot be replaced
if lost or daraged, such as photographs or children’s
