Hurricane Evacuation Zone by ZIP Code
Look up your hurricane evacuation zone by entering your ZIP code. Knowing your zone helps you plan for storm surge and flooding risk during hurricane season. This tool uses official state data to show which evacuation zone your area falls into so you can prepare your family and property before the next storm.
Why Look Up Your Hurricane Evacuation Zone by ZIP Code?
A hurricane evacuation zone by ZIP code lookup is a fast way to find out your area’s storm surge and flooding risk without browsing by state and town. Evacuation zones are set by state and local emergency management based on elevation, historical surge, and flood models. When you know your zone, you know whether you may be asked to evacuate and can plan routes, supplies, and family communication in advance. Use this page to quickly find your evacuation zone by ZIP code, or browse by state and town on our hurricane evacuation zones by state page for detailed maps and links to official resources.
We support lookup for states that publish evacuation zone data, including Florida hurricane evacuation zones, Virginia evacuation zone maps, Georgia hurricane evacuation zones, and Louisiana hurricane evacuation zones. On each state page you can also choose your city or town to see your primary evacuation zone, a map, and a link to the official state evacuation zone map.
Hurricane Preparedness and Your Evacuation Zone
Hurricane preparedness starts with knowing your evacuation zone. Officials issue evacuation orders by zone (e.g., Zone A first) so the highest-risk areas clear first. Having your zone in mind helps you decide when to leave, where to go, and what to pack. Our hurricane evacuation zone lookup gives you a clear answer so you are not guessing when watches and warnings are posted. Always confirm with your state or county emergency management and the official evacuation zone map before and during a storm.
Beyond your zone, preparedness includes an evacuation route, emergency supplies (water, food, medications, documents), a communication plan, and a plan for pets. For town-level details, supplies lists, and FAQs, go to our hurricane evacuation zones by state page, select your state, then your town.
How Evacuation Zones Work
Evacuation zones are geographic areas classified by storm surge and flood risk. Zones are often lettered (A, B, C) or numbered, with the first zone being the most at risk. Your evacuation zone by ZIP code or address tells you which of these areas you are in. Boundaries can be updated, so we link to the official state or county map from our town pages. For the most current boundaries and orders, follow your local emergency management and the National Weather Service.
Whether you use our ZIP code lookup or our state and town pages, taking time now to find your evacuation zone and plan your response will make you safer when the next hurricane or tropical storm threatens. Bookmark this page and your state’s evacuation zone page for quick access during hurricane season.
State and Town Lookup as an Alternative
If you prefer to browse by location, our hurricane evacuation zones by state page lets you select your state—Florida, Virginia, Georgia, or Louisiana—and then your city or town. Town pages show your primary evacuation zone, an interactive map, recommended hurricane supplies, and a direct link to the official state or county evacuation zone map. That flow is ideal when you want detailed local information and preparedness tips in one place.
Evacuation orders depend on the specific storm, so always follow guidance from your state and county emergency management. Our hurricane evacuation zone lookup is meant to help you prepare in advance and understand your risk; when a storm is approaching, rely on official sources for the latest zone boundaries and evacuation orders.
