Storm Surge Preparedness A storm surge is a rise above the normal water level along a shore that accompanies a tropical cyclone as it comes ashore. Know Your Maps, Know Your Zone! • Storm surge is often the greatest threat to life and property from a hurricane. It poses a significant threat for drowning. • Find out today, well before a hurricane ever approaches, if you live in a storm surge evacuation zone. • Tropical storms, major hurricanes, and post-tropical cyclones can all cause life-threatening storm surge. Turn Around, Don’t Drown. If you come upon flowing water that is above your ankles, you should stop, turn around, and go another way. Turn and drive around if you come upon a flooded road. Wait to Return. Evacuations may last for days or even weeks. These measures are meant to keep you safe – always wait for the “all clear” from officials before returning home. Click here for more information. #HurricaneSafety #FloodSafety @RedCross 5/12/2015 • You do not have to live in a floodplain to experience storm surge from a hurricane or other storm. • Click here for more information. Have an emergency plan and contact. Practice your evacuation route & ask someone out of state to be a “family contact.” Get Flood Insurance. Because standard homeowners insurance doesn’t cover flooding, it’s important to have protection in place. For more information, visit FloodSmart.gov. Download the Red Cross Emergency App! Access information on what to do before, during and after a flood or hurricane. Click here for more information.
