National Hurricane Preparedness Week

5/6/2019 (Permalink)

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration or NOAA, the Atlantic hurricane season is right around the corner.  It typically runs from June 1 through November 30 but there is nothing magical about these dates, tropical cyclones can appear almost anytime. 

This season’s forecast was released today by The Weather Company, an IBM Business. The outlook calls for a total of 14 named storms, seven hurricanes and three major hurricanes.

National Hurricane Preparedness Week is the perfect time to  talk about hurricanes.  Although the friends and neighbors of SERVPRO of North Morris County reside approximately 50 miles from the Atlantic Coast, a typical hurricane can be up to 300 miles wide.  Many of us remember the devastation along the coast from Hurricanes Sandy and Irene.  Although we don’t have to worry about storm surge in North Morris County, the damage here from these storms was caused by sustained high winds, super cells and flooding. 

It’s never too early to be prepared!  Take some time this week, before hurricane season, to make a plan!

For a personalized Emergency Ready Plan (ERP) for your business, call SERVPRO of North Morris County at 973-983-5657.
