The Pet Friendly Shelter located at Liberty Magnet School is now closed and no longer accepting anyone else. Anyone still wishing to shelter with pets should contact the Indian River County Emergency Operations Center Hotline at (772) 226-4000 for information on how to proceed.
The Emergency Operations Center has learned that all flights out of Palm Beach International Airport are cancelled and the Vero Beach Airport and Tower are closed. If you still plan to evacuate to a shelter, the time to leave is now. As the storm winds strengthen, the shelters will close their doors as opening them will compromise the integrity of the buildings. Please get to a shelter or other safe place now.
