Hurricane Protocols
Florida hurricane season runs June 1–November 30. We want you to stay safe and comfortable. Please review and follow this checklist if a storm threatens. Always prioritize official local guidance from county emergency management, the National Hurricane Center, or local authorities.

Before the Hurricane (When a Watch or Warning is Issued):

 

  • Act early—supplies sell out fast and roads get crowded.

  • Monitor updates: Download apps like FEMA, NOAA Weather Radio, or local news.

  • Follow county emergency alerts, FloridaDisaster.org, and our property updates.

  • Know your evacuation zone.

  • Secure outdoor items: Bring in all patio furniture, grills, plants, decorations, trash cans, and loose items. Secure anything that can’t come inside (ideally to trees or fencing).

  • Prepare the property: Close and lock all windows, doors, and shutters (if equipped).

  • Unplug non-essential appliances and electronics.

  • Move valuables away from windows.

  • Stock supplies (aim for 3–7 days):

    • Water: 1 gallon per person per day.

    • Non-perishable food (canned goods, bars, peanut butter, etc.) + manual can opener.

    • Medications (7-day supply), first-aid kit, and any special medical needs.

    • Flashlights, extra batteries, battery/hand-crank radio.

    • Phone chargers/power banks, cash, important documents (in waterproof bag).

    • Hygiene items, pet food/supplies if applicable.

    • Other prep: Fill vehicle gas tanks and have a small “go bag” ready in case of evacuation.

    • Know your nearest shelter and evacuation routes (inland or to higher ground).

    • Charge all devices; set up a family communication plan.
       

  • Contact us immediately if you have questions about property features like shutters or if you need assistance.

During the Hurricane:

 

  • Stay safe inside—hurricanes bring dangerous winds, rain, and flooding.

  • Shelter in place: Stay in an interior room on the lowest level (away from windows and glass doors).

  • Use a closet, bathroom, or hallway if winds intensify.

  • Avoid exterior walls.

  • Stay informed: Listen to battery-powered radio or phone alerts.

  • Do not go outside during the storm, even in the “eye” (conditions can worsen suddenly).

  • Safety rules:

    • Do not use candles (fire risk)—use flashlights.

    • Avoid opening refrigerator/freezer unnecessarily to keep food cold longer.

    • Do not use electrical appliances if power is out or water is present.

    • Stay away from floodwaters—turn around, don’t drown.

    • If flooding occurs: Move to higher ground inside the home (never enter a closed attic if waters rise).

    • Evacuate immediately if ordered by officials or if you feel unsafe. Do not wait.

After the Hurricane:

 

  • Wait for the “all clear” from authorities before going outside.

  • Avoid downed power lines and flooded areas.

  • Document any damage with photos and contact us right away.

  • Use caution with generators and carbon monoxide risks.

  • Your safety is our priority. If you need property-specific info (e.g., generator location, shutters, or emergency contacts), contact us at Relax@thefloridahavens.com
