Butler County hurricane guide

The Butler County Department of Emergency Services in Butler runs 9-1-1, emergency management, and hazmat planning for the county, with a risk-based all-hazard program. Butler County is inland, so the remains of tropical storms are mainly a flash flood and stream flood risk. Create a Butler County Alerts profile before a storm.

Official alerts and information

  • Butler County Alerts (Regroup): Free alerts by phone, text, or email for life-safety threats, severe weather warnings, and evacuation notices. The county says to create a new profile even if you used the old CodeRED system. Website.

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 Butler County emergency services pages that were checked do not list standing shelters for floods or storms. Shelters are announced when an emergency happens, so do not go to a site until the county announces it. Follow county alerts and local news, and call the emergency services office if you need help.

Cities and towns

Each city has its own services and some have their own alerts. The county's evacuation zones, evacuation centers, and emergency alerts cover everyone, in every city and in unincorporated areas.
