The Atlantic Hurricane Season spans from June 1st to November 30th, encompassing three seasons with the peak of hurricane activity typically occurring in September. The frequency and intensity of hurricanes can be influenced by various factors. Hurricanes bring powerful winds and heavy rain that can cause extensive damage to buildings. The wind exerts pressure on roofs, walls, and other components of the building envelope, while wind-borne debris poses a risk to windows and doors. Additionally, fallen trees and power lines can further damage structures. To safeguard your property from these powerful and unpredictable storms, here are some valuable tips to consider.

  1. Develop an emergency plan: Create a detailed plan for your household that includes evacuation routes, designated meeting points, and important contact information. Ensure all family members are aware of the plan and practice it regularly.
  2. Secure your property: Prior to hurricane season, inspect your property for any vulnerabilities. Reinforce windows and doors with shutters or plywood. Trim back trees and shrubs to minimize potential damage from falling branches. Secure loose outdoor items or move them indoors.
  3. Back up important data: Safeguard important documents, photos, and files by backing them up to a secure location, either in the cloud or on an external hard drive. This will help protect your valuable information in case of damage or loss.
  4. Reinforce the garage door: If you have a garage, reinforce the door with a bracing system designed to withstand high winds. This can help prevent structural damage and protect your vehicles.
  5. Install a generator: Consider installing a generator to provide backup power in the event of an electricity outage. Ensure it is properly installed and maintained to avoid any safety hazards.
  6. Consider flood insurance: Standard homeowners insurance policies typically do not cover flood damage. Evaluate your insurance coverage and consider purchasing a separate flood insurance policy to protect your property.
