Hurricane Shelters

The annual Atlantic Hurricane Season is June 1st to November 30th each year. Plan now. If your home is located in an area vulnerable to flooding, storm surge, or higher-than-normal winds or if your home may not be able to withstand high winds even though it may not be in a vulnerable area, you should plan to evacuate in the event of a hurricane or severe storm.

The first point is to stay with friends or relatives whose homes are strong enough. If you must, then you may go to a public shelter. Learn where your shelters are located. Below find out the names and locations of shelters:
