As we are starting to see more activity in regards to the Tropics it is important to always be prepared. We take this very seriously and are in a very good place when it comes to ensuring your house is as safe as possible should a storm hit our area.
I have to tell you it has already been extremely hot and humid and heat indexes over 100 degrees and the temperatures of the water is very warm which is concerning. The warmer water acts as fuel for the hurricanes and increases their strength.
Hurricane Beryl that passed south of us was the earleist Category 5 storm recorded in history. The predicition for the amount of storms this year has increased since the last predicitions back in April. The links below have some interesting updates regarding this year’s Hurricane Season.
