Quincy, Florida, no está significativamente amenazado por los impactos de la marejada en comparación con las áreas costeras debido a su ubicación en el interior aproximadamente a 20 millas de la Costa del Golfo. Sin embargo, con una elevación promedio de solo unas 200 pies, la ciudad no es inmune a los riesgos de inundación derivados de las intensas lluvias durante los eventos de huracanes. Los huracanes tienden a dejar caer grandes cantidades de lluvia, lo que provoca inundaciones, especialmente en áreas con altos niveles freáticos y sistemas de drenaje inadecuados. Además, el terreno de la ciudad no permite que las aguas de inundación se dispersen rápidamente. Mirando los últimos 30 años, Quincy fue significativamente impactado por el huracán Michael en 2018, que fue un huracán de categoría 5. La ciudad sufrió daños por la alta velocidad del viento, pero lo más impactante fue la lluvia extrema, que provocó inundaciones en varias áreas. Otro huracán que causó graves impactos fue el huracán Kate en 1985, que también resultó en daños por vientos fuertes, pero una vez más, la inundación debido a la lluvia constante fue la principal preocupación. Los datos meteorológicos históricos sugieren que los huracanes y las tormentas severas representan riesgos sustanciales de inundación en Quincy debido a las fuertes lluvias que traen a la región. Por lo tanto, la ciudad debería establecer y mantener medidas de preparación robustas que incluyan procedimientos de drenaje suficientes, barreras contra inundaciones, planes de evacuación y servicios de emergencia.

Storm surge—water driven ashore by a hurricane—is one of the greatest threats to life and property in coastal and low-lying areas. Evacuation zones are drawn using elevation, historical surge data, and flood models so that the most vulnerable areas are identified in advance. If you are in a higher-risk zone, having an evacuation plan and a go-kit ready can save critical time when an order is issued. This hurricane evacuation zone lookup gives you a clear starting point so you can plan ahead and stay informed.
Hurricane preparedness goes beyond knowing your zone. It includes having an evacuation route, a family communication plan, emergency supplies (water, food, medications, important documents), and a plan for pets. The hurricane supplies list on this page is a good basis for a go-kit. We also recommend signing up for local emergency alerts and following your state and county emergency management offices for the latest evacuation zone information and orders.
