WHERE SHOULD YOU EVACUATE?


You must go at least as far as I-12 where you should be clear from storm surge flooding. East: Take I-10 and head North on I-59. Both lanes will be outbound, but


I-10 could close at the twin bridges due to high winds and water. North: Take the Causeway, but both lanes will close if winds exceed 50 mph. West: Take Airline Drive (US 61), but it has low spots and will floord quickly. OR take I-10 West, both sides will be outbound. The right two lanes merge into I-55 North. The left lanes go to Baton Rouge. Watch for crossover lanes near the Loyola Avenue exit.


WHEN YOU EVACUATE


Shut off electricity, gas, water. Store all perishable food in a sealed trash bag, inside your refrigerator. Load emergency supplies into your car using this guide as a checklist (you cannot bring pets, alcohol or weapons to shelters)


Be on the alert for tornadoes, which can be caused by hurricanes


Drive with caution and patience PLEASE SAY "I SAW IT IN THE ST. BERNARD BUSINESS GUIDE"
