Hurricane Evacuatin Planning (Strm Surge) MDC Emergency Actin Guide Table f Cntents Strm surge is prduced by water being pushed tward the shre by the frce f the winds mving cyclnically arund the strm. Several MDC campuses are lcated in areas that may fld during heavy rain, and all campuses are subject t flding during hurricanes.

Miami-Dade Cunty updated its strm surge planning zne maps May The updated maps are a significant change in the areas that are at risk fr strm surge, when cmpared t what was used fr the last 10 years. Instead f znes A t C, the new maps have znes A t E and will incrprate all areas f the Cunty at risk f strm surge. The descriptin f each Strm Surge Planning Znes is as fllws: Zne A is at greatest risk fr strm surge fr Categry 1 and higher strms. Zne B is at greatest risk fr strm surge fr Categry 2 and higher strms. Zne C is at greatest risk fr strm surge fr Categry 3 and higher strms. Zne D is at greatest risk fr strm surge fr Categry 4 and higher strms. Zne E is at greatest risk fr strm surge frm Categry 5 strms. The Strm Surge Planning Znes are used t identify risk f strm surge and is based n all directins f strms. As a strm is appraching, Miami-Dade Cunty Emergency Management will identify which areas shuld evacuate fr that particular strm. Evacuatin Znes will be all f r a prtin f the Strm Surge Planning Znes. Residents shuld mnitr the media and listen fr which areas are being tld t evacuate.
