Parma hurricane guide¶

Evacuation centers¶
Open only when announced
Evacuation centers open only when officials announce them, and not every center opens for every storm. Check the official list of open centers before you leave home. Bring your own bedding, food, water, and medicines.
The city pages checked do not list shelters. Shelters, if any, are announced for each emergency. Do not go to a site until it is announced. See the Cuyahoga County page for ReadyNotify alerts.
