For a list of shelters, click

If you must evacuate, the first choice is to seek
shelter with friends, family or a host home. Public shelters are a final option.
While they are safe places to be in a storm, space and comforts are limited.
Area hotels and motels in non-evacuation areas
can also be a shelter possibility. Some can accommodate
pets and wheelchair users and may take evacuation
reservations.

-
Bring folding chairs, cots, pillows and
blankets, special dietary needs, prescription
medications, baby diapers, formula, etc.
Bring along your Emergency Survival Kit.
-
Bring
books, puzzles and other quiet games to pass
the time.
- Do not bring jewelry or other valuables to
the shelter. Make plans for those items before
leaving home.
- Do not bring pets, firearms, illegal drugs
or alcohol to public shelters. Only pet-friendly
shelters allow pets. Register for those ahead
of time.
Once you arrive at a public shelter, the
following suggestions will help make your stay
more pleasant for everyone.
- Keep an eye on your children at all times
and stay out of deserted or restricted areas
of the building.
- Law enforcement personnel will be stationed
at each shelter. Report any suspicious activity
to them.
- Show courtesy for others by not disturbing
those around you.
- Show respect and gratitude to the Pinellas
County schools by leaving the shelter the way
you found it.

Please be sure to check which
shelters are opened, as all shelters
may not be opened during an evacuation.
