Roberts County hurricane guide¶
In Texas the County Judge directs emergency management, and the Roberts County Judge's office is at the courthouse in Miami. The county is inland, far from the Gulf coast, but the remains of a tropical storm can still bring heavy rain and flash flooding. For emergencies call 911, and for anything else call the Sheriff's Office or the County Judge's office.
