What to do
Check your evacuation zone and confirm where you can go. Follow evacuation orders and account for pets and medical equipment. Watch official updates for storm surge, inland flooding, and changing routes.
Before the next alert
Save local emergency management contacts and share your plan with everyone in the household. Check what supplies, accessible transportation, and pet arrangements you would need if you had to leave.
