Mulberry, Florida, a pesar de estar ubicado aproximadamente a 60 millas tierra adentro desde la costa más cercana, no está inmune a los impactos de los huracanes y tormentas tropicales. Esta ubicación dentro del Condado de Polk ofrece cierta protección contra las primeras amenazas de marejadas ciclónicas que las regiones costeras suelen enfrentar. Sin embargo, tales tormentas llevan consigo fuertes lluvias y vientos fuertes que pueden llegar muy adentro en tierra, lo que hace que la ciudad aún sea vulnerable a daños significativos. El paisaje de Mulberry también es relativamente plano, con una elevación promedio de poco menos de 200 pies, lo que puede resultar en un incremento del riesgo de inundaciones cuando se involucran grandes cantidades de lluvia comunes en los huracanes. Un vistazo a la historia del clima revela que Mulberry ha sentido los impactos de huracanes muy destructivos en las últimas tres décadas. En 2004, tres huracanes poderosos, Charley, Frances y Jeanne, atravesaron o se acercaron al Condado de Polk, del cual Mulberry es parte. El huracán Irma en 2017 también impactó significativamente al Condado de Polk, con cortes de luz generalizados y daños por inundaciones. Estas tormentas masivas trajeron lluvias sustanciales que resultaron en inundaciones, así como fuertes vientos que causaron daños a la propiedad y cortes de energía. Por lo tanto, aunque la ubicación interior de Mulberry limita el efecto de la marejada ciclónica, las evaluaciones de amenazas de huracanes deben seguir considerando las fuertes lluvias, los vientos fuertes y las posteriores inundaciones como posibles impactos significativos.

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.
