Rapid Rescues: Flash Floods Prompt Evacuations and Dramatic Water Rescues

Etna Borough has issued an evacuation notice for residents in flood zones or prone to flooding due to severe flooding, with Pine Creek reaching 14 feet. Residents are urged to evacuate immediately and take their pets with them, and those needing assistance should call 911. The borough also advised those who do not evacuate to seek the highest floor in their homes as emergency personnel may not be able to reach them, and provided a shelter location for those without a place to go.
