Hurricane Alert

An alert is generally issued when a hurricane poses a possible threat to your area, but is more then 36 hours away.

Hurricane Watch

Once a hurricane watch is issued, this means that the threat of hurricane conditions to your area is between 24 and 36 hours away.

Hurricane Warning

When hurricane conditions are expected within 24 hours or less, a hurricane warning will be issued.

All Clear

The all clear is given when the storm has left the area but caution should prevail.

Insurance Coverage

Before a hurricane alert is issued, make yourself familiar with your insurance policy to ensure that you are adequately covered and paid up. Quantity surveyors or other property valuators can help you to determine the full replacement value of your property. If you have questions about insurance coverage or options, visit PIA.
