Because I didn’t want this buried in a reblog:

The city has ordered a mandatory evacuation for everyone living in ZONE A

These are generally low-lying areas in all 5 boros including areas such as Coney Island and Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn, the Rockaways in Queens, parts of Lower Manhattan, etc.

HOW TO KNOW IF YOU LIVE IN ZONE A:

WNYC has an interactive map on their website where you can type in your address and it will show you exactly which zone you live in.

Link to map HERE

This is also helpful for those of you who have family or neighbors who are not internet savvy so please help them out too so they don’t have to rely on calling 311 (which is probably hammered).

OKAY I LIVE IN ZONE A, BUT WHERE DO I GO?

Preferably you have friends and family elsewhere that you can stay with. Failing that, the city has evacuation shelters if you have nowhere to go, PETS ARE ALLOWED and each of them is wheelchair accessible but parking is limited so they are asking that you take public transit.

A full list of city evacuation shelters is available HERE. Multiple languages are available.
