Hurricane Preparedness

Hurricane Season runs from June 1 to November 30. The Town has developed this informational page to assist residents in finding useful information relating to emergency preparedness and response.

Although hurricanes can occur outside of this six month period, these months represent when most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic Ocean.

Palm Beach is a barrier island and is therefore highly susceptible to storm surge. Residents, business owners, and visitors to Palm Beach are strongly encouraged to EVACUATE the Island for any hurricane.
