Harvey could potentially make landfall as a tropical storm or hurricane along the Texas Coast late Friday, August 25. Heavy rainfall is expected and flash flooding is a possiblilty through the weekend. In addition, forecasters expect storm surge and tropical storm or hurricane-force winds along the Texas coast.
 
Make sure to review your family emergency plans, restock your disaster supply kits and stay informed.
 
Supply kit should include:
NOAA weather radio and batteries
Flashlight and batteries
Extra eye glasses
Bottled water
Non-perishable food
Clothing and bedding
First aid kit, medications and prescriptions
Special products for babies, elderly and medically fragile family members
Cash and credit cards
Photo ID, important documents and records
 
Also prepare an emergency kit for your pets and a plan on how to care for them. Never leave your pets behind!
 
If you live in an evacuation zone, an area threatened by storm surge, discuss evacuation plans with your family and do not stay if you are asked to leave. Check with city or county officials to find out if your home is in an evacuation zone or look on the Zip Zone Evacuation Map to see if your zip code is in an evacuation area. If you don’t live in an evacuation zone, shelter at home, until the storm passes.
 
DO NOT DRIVE INTO HIGH WATER!! Turn Around, Don't Drown!
