Map Facts:

Shelters: The shelters displayed on the maps are Red Cross approved shelters. Contact local officials regarding any additional city or town approved shelters.

Green Shaded Areas: You most likely would be affected by any hurricane regardless of category.

Yellow Shaded Areas: You most likely would be affected by any category 3 hurricane (with a forward speed of 21 miles per hour or greater) or category 4 hurricane.

*Those living in either green or yellow shaded areas should be aware of evacuation routes in your community.
