    If the water is warm enough and there are not any currents dragging you somewhere, how would this be any different from going swimming in a lake in the summer?

      One of the big reasons why it’s considered unsafe to swim in floodwater is the hygien: Remember the sewers must be overflowing. Plus, the water can have engulfed any amount of chemicals (oil, gaz, battery acid…)
