Are you #JaxReady?
As of 8 a.m. on 10/8/2024:
The Emergency Operations Center has been activated in response to Hurricane Milton. As this system continues to approach Florida, we expect to see impacts in Duval County. Strong wind gusts are expected, mainly along the coastal areas, beginning as early as Wednesday evening. Coastal flooding is ongoing and will worsen as Storm Surge arrives Thursday afternoon. Excessive Rainfall is forecasted, and flooding will likely occur in flood-prone areas, poor drainage and urban locations. Life-threatening surf conditions are occurring and will worsen Wednesday and remain dangerous through the weekend.
@JaxReady Encourages the Duval Community to Take These Steps to Protect Yourself and Your Property:
🌧️ Be prepared: Find your evacuation and flood zones at maps.coj.net.
🌧️ Secure outdoor items like signs, garbage cans and toys.
🌧️ Pick up and bag any loose debris outside of your home.
🌧️ Prepare for possible flooding in low-lying areas.
🌧️ Gas up and service your vehicles.
🌧️ Charge your devices.
🌧️ Fill jugs and lidded containers with clean Jacksonville tap water.
🌧️ Listen to radio, TV, or NOAA Weather Radio for status and forecasts of the storm’s progress.
🌧️ Double check your emergency supply kit.
🌧️ Review your emergency plan.
🌧️ Bring your pets inside—DO NOT set them loose.
Stay weather-aware and be prepared for Hurricane Milton. Download the JaxReady app for immediate access to severe weather updates and resources, and text ALERTJAX to 888-777 to receive Duval County emergency updates.
