An American Red Cross shelter is open in San Luis Obispo for county residents who are under an Evacuation Warning or who have been displaced due to flooding.

The shelter is set up at the Veterans Memorial Building located at 801 Grand Avenue.

Pets are welcome.

Neighborhoods in Arroyo Grande, Cayucos, Grover Beach, Morro Bay, Oceano, and Paso Robles are currently under Evacuation Warnings due to the risk of flooding during the current storm system.

Detailed maps of the Evacuation Warnings are available on ReadySLO.org.

County emergency officials say that if evacuations become necessary in those areas, notifications will be issued via Wireless Emergency Alerts, reverse 911, and social media.
