Every year it’s important for residents to know if they live an evacuation zone, a low-lying, flood prone area, a mobile home or an unsafe structure during hurricane season.
Instructions to Know Your Zone, Know Your Home
- Type in your address Know Your Zone
- Find if your address is in one of the colored evacuation zones
- If you are in an evacuation zone, listen to evacuation orders from local officials (Typically Zone A is the most vulnerable and the most likely to evacuate first. Zone E is most likely to evacuate last)
- If an evacuation order is not issued for your area, you may consider sheltering in place. Not all evacuations zones are always ordered.
- If you shelter in place, it’s important to Know Your Home and its ability to withstand strong winds and heavy rain
