Evacuate if at all Possible!!
Public Shelters Should Be Your LAST RESORT!!
If an evacuation order has been issued, officials stress that you make every effort to leave the area. Storm shelters are established to protect residents who lack transportation or who have nowhere else to go.
If you must go to a shelter, here are some important items for you to consider:
► Shelters are not hotels! They will not be able to provide you with any conveniences or luxuries. Bring your family’s disaster supply kit to ensure proper provisions.
► Be considerate! Shelters have a community environment that consists of a large number of people. It is important to be considerate and cooperative and follow the instructions of the refuge management team.
► Food and Water may be scarce at first. You may experience the shortage or rationing of food, especially for the first few hours. The condition will be temporary.
► No weapons or liquor allowed! Weapons and liquor are not permitted in shelters under any circumstances, and could lead to your arrest.
► Be patient! Try to be patient and cheerful about the situation, and your attitude will help the overall morale of the entire group. Listen only to official information and refuse to pass on another person’s speculations.
