Tropical storms and hurricanes can pose a particular threat to Florida's coastal communities in the form of storm surge. A storm surge is a rise in sea level that occurs during tropical cyclones and hurricanes.
For most coastal Florida counties, evacuation zones have been designated. While inland counties do not have designated evacuation zones, they do have evacuation routes.
