Pasco County Evacuations Ahead Of Hurricane Michael
Although it’s passing to our northwest, parts of Pasco County will feel the effects of Hurricane Michael. Officials are asking those who live WEST of Highway 19 that could see a dangerous storm surge or have special needs to evacuate, according to Channel 8. It’s not a mandatory evacuation. But if you’re in a low-lying area and have had damage in the past from flooding, it’s something you want to consider.
There is a shelter open now in Hudson at 11611 Denton Avenue if you don’t have a friend or family member to stay with. If you need help or have questions, call (727) 847-2411.
#PascoCounty recommends voluntary evacuations West of U.S. 19, due to potential life-threatening storm surge. The Fasano Shelter is open.
