Evacuation Orders & Shelters
EVACUATION ORDERS:
Those living in evacuation Zones A and B should finalize their hurricane safety plans and evacuate as soon as possible. Severe weather is expected to move into our area overnight on Tuesday.
Remember, evacuations do not need to be hundreds of miles away. We encourage you to stay with a friend or family member in a non-evacuated zone. Emergency shelters are also opening for those without a safe place to ride out the storm.
