Yes, San Juan County has pre-determined Emergency (Red Cross) Shelters, but will distribute that information at the time of an incident. (Shelters are usually located in community centers, schools, churches and other large facilities.) We must first get the facility open and stocked before officially opening the shelter. The information will be given out on this web page, via radio and/or TV, local media, the 211 phone line, and possibly as an Emergency Alert System (EAS) Broadcast.
