You are the head of the city's Disaster Response team. During a surprise, rapidly escalating flood, your team's standard operating procedure requires you to evacuate a retirement home first. However, a major hospital located near the retirement home reports an immediate, catastrophic power failure that requires diverting your limited rescue boats to save patients on life support.
