This will give you a chuckle I live in pinellas Co Florida; the paper printed evacuation routes in case of a hurricane: they are prepairing for 20 foot tides: Heres the funny part: Go south; you must go across a bridge aproaches are 6 feet above sea level; Go east you must go across a bridge or a causway, both only 8 feet above sea level; Go north; bridge there are two. Go west and you wind up in the gulf of mexico.

Wouldn't one be evacuating BEFORE the tides went up?
I see what you mean though. Surge of 20ft with exits much below that! Does sound funny.

It seems that some people would rather gamble their lives that they will not be affected by a storm.

Good points Bill - it also speaks to the importance of having a NOAA radio. The other important fact is to know what COUNTY you are in - as tornado reporting (so I've read) in many cases is talked about as to what COUNTIES are in danger.
Looks like the condo's are sold out, better hang on to your RV ;)
