No One Ever Expects the Spanish Inquisition… Or a Major Hurricane!!

May 4, 2019

“Hurricane Season comes every year.” Jane-Claire in Against The Wind

Hurricane Season officially begins June 1 and lasts all the way until November 30… Every year.

Amazing to contemplate. Sometimes preparation for a storm becomes a routine drill that families along the Gulf coast, Florida, and Atlantic Coast must undertake several times a season.

“Battening the hatches” is part of living life in these areas of the country. But the key is preparedness…

This week, May 5 – May 11 is National Hurricane Preparedness Week sponsored by the National Weather Service. Here’s the link :

I fully admit that there are some storms and natural disasters that truly cannot be “prepared for” but getting ready for trouble before it’s at your door is always a good idea.

Visit the website. Take the 2019 Hurricane Awareness Tour. Check out Hurricane Safety Precautions. Make a plan with your family now before the need arises.

Determine Your Risk.

Develop an Evacuation Plan.

Assemble Disaster Supplies.

Get an Insurance Checkup.

Strengthen Your Home.

Exchange Contact Information with Immediate Neighbors.

Write down essential Information. Store it in an easily accessible place.

Take photos of insurance cards and store on your phone.

Good Stuff!! Take it to heart and Be prepared to Go with your Plan when a Storm Threatens.

But Let’s Hope and Pray – Not This Year.
