In advance preparation of Hurricane Beryl, County Judge Eddie Trevino, Jr., has ordered a voluntary evacuation for recreational vehicles (RVs) and other high-profile vehicles to RV guests staying at County Parks (Isla Blanca Park, Andy Bowie Park and Adolph Thomae, Jr. Park in Arroyo City). This voluntary evacuation is based on the forecast by the National Weather Service regarding the storm’s path.
As a precautionary measure, we are asking all campers to secure loose items around your campsites (e.g. chairs, umbrellas, tables, carpets, shade canopies, etc.) that could easily be tossed by high winds and cause damage to neighboring property. You may also want to retract awnings and re-check tie downs to make sure campers are properly secured. Due to the possibility of power outages, campers are encouraged to have a backup generator on hand. Additionally, it’s advised to conserve perishable food as much as possible. Campers should stay tuned to their local weather station for the latest updates on the storm and having a plan of action in case the storm track changes or intensifies is also recommended.
At this time, we are not requiring guests to evacuate, but want to make sure all precautionary measures are taken in case the storms current track remains accurate. The County will provide updates on any new storm developments. I thank you for your immediate attention as we keep an eye on the tropics and keep you updated with any further developments. Updates will be posted on various platforms including the Parks Facebook Page, Emergency Management Facebook Page, County Website
