I updated that to make it clearer. You should evacuate if authorities tell you to evacuate, not the entire hurricane warning area of course. Being a handful of different countries, it's hard to find resources for people, like evacuation maps for example. But people need to evacuate if told to do so. This is too dangerous of a storm to take any chances. If you are in a flood zone, there's nothing you could do to protect your house by staying. As for the wind, I have no idea what building codes are on various islands and what kind of shelters are available. Hurricane conditions will start to be in the area tonight, with tropical storm conditions earlier than that. People should already be evacuated if they were told to do so. If not, there's not too many hours left before conditions deteriorate.
