What you should do:
While Tropical Storm Fay will not impact Texas, we have not reached the peak of Hurricane Season. All residents should GET A KIT, MAKE A PLAN and STAY INFORMED on tropical weather. 

GET A KIT

  • Check your hurricane preparedness kit
  • Start picking up items you need now, before Hurricane Season starts.
  • Do not forget about items for pets, babies and those with special medical needs.

MAKE A PLAN

  • Review your family’s emergency plan, including what you will do if you stay or if you evacuate. 
  • Remember to take into account that social distancing is still needed for COVID-19.
  • If you live in an evacuation zone (Zip Zone) and will need assistance evacuating for a storm that threatens our region, now is the time to call 2-1-1 or go online to register for assistance.
