If there is any information you can share with others about how you and people in your area are preparing for the hurricane: evacuations, shelters and where to get supplies, please post it here.

Here's the latest advisory:
http://site.nemo.org.bz/advisory-2-tropical-storm-eta/

From that advisory:

A FLOOD WATCH is in effect for the Cayo, Belize, Stann Creek and Toledo districts. Southern Belize must brace for and be prepared to respond to severe flooding. People living along rivers and creeks BE WARNED! If where you are is not safe be prepared to move to higher grounds move away from streams and riverside. DON'T WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE. People living in flood-prone areas are reminded to place food and valuable items out of the reach of floodwaters. If your home is likely to flood, turn off the main power supply. Do not remain in areas where latrines are overflowing due to the floodwaters. Do not play or drive in floodwaters.

Farmers are reminded to secure their crops and assets. Do not cross flooded creeks and rivers. SIX
INCHES OF FLOOD WATERS CAN SWEEP YOU OFF YOUR FEET. DO NOT DRIVE THROUGH FLOOD WATERS, IT CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS. Motorists are asked to drive with extreme caution when driving the highways and secondary roads. Drivers are reminded to put on their hazard light when driving through rain.
