Help Palm Beach County Assess Storm Damage – Your Photos Matter

The Palm Beach County Office of Emergency Management (OEM) is asking residents to help document storm damage throughout the county.

While assessment teams are actively surveying affected areas, your photos can make a difference! Pictures of damage to homes, businesses, roads, and surrounding areas provide valuable information that helps emergency management officials better understand the storm's impact and support recovery efforts.

We encourage all residents to download the Palm Beach County Disaster Awareness & Recovery Tool (PBC DART) from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.

Once downloaded, use the app's Report Damage feature to submit photos of storm-related damage in your neighborhood or community.

Your participation helps us build a more complete picture of the damage across Palm Beach County. Every photo helps!
