That is what happened in North Florida with Irma. Rising rivers and such almost cut us off when we were driving back home for Charleston. Yeah, we didn't exactly pick the best place to evacuate to, but dumb luck not only got us a hotel 3-4 feet above highest flood level, but we also found fuel okay on the way home.
As bad as the storm will be, I think the post storm flooding will be worse. All the rain inland will be flowing back through the already flooded areas. Lived in FL since 70 and been through a few. Get out if you can, be smart.
