Crawford County hurricane guide

Crawford County is inland, so the remains of tropical storms are mainly a flash flood and stream flood risk. The county has a Special Needs Registry linked from its Residents menu.

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 Crawford County Public Safety 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. Call the Department of Public Safety if you need help.
