Wednesday Watching the Weekend Weather as Storm Supposed to Form - Is Your Roof Ready for Hurricane Season?

 


Y'all know Mike's Weather Page.
There's this grid that shows in motion the forecast.
Top left square above.
He makes it easy or just go to ...
Windy.com


Troubling Weather for Florida.
Gulf of Mexico... incoming.
Marches across Florida on Friday.


Sunday it's draped through the Caribbean.
Then out to sea and moves on.
Falls apart.

These are those types of events before the Hurricane Season that reminds Floridians that it is coming down the line. Lots of localized flooding as TWC shows wild video and everyone finds out whether or not their roof is ready for May Monsoons and the oncoming Hurricane Season. Seriously, denial is a river that can be ignored only so long. 


Dabuh has been singing this song all week!
Snow up in the North.
Severe Weather in FL
Possibly Carolinas.
It's evolving....


Saturday something hovers over me in NC!


Sunday is a mess!
Spring brings wicked weather.....

I'm a mess. Seriously need to find a way to deal with what seems to be Spring Allergies or may need to hit the road somewhere that the pollen isn't reigning. A little rain would help, but in NC we have been dry this year and despite the NWS tossing rain into the forecast regularly they just as regularly take it out. Every year hits me differently and every year I'm surprised again and again. Nine months go by and I forget "here comes Spring" and the pollen. And, then it's a wall of green, so will take meds and enjoy the beautiful array of colors in Raleigh right now.

As for Miami it's a big weekend down there, anyone flying in early for some fun and sun in the sunshine made a good call, as those flying in Friday will be disappointed. Ultra Music Festival messing up the traffic downtown and playing music so loud you can hear it in my kid's apartment nearby and all along the Biscayne Blvd corridor.

Normally it's a safe time of year for a festival as rain doesn't usually happen until May when the sky turns dark like the end of the world every day at 3 PM and kids go splish splash playing in the puddles.


Before the Monsoons.
Paradise Found!!
During May Monsoons!


Paradise Lost!!

Well until the storm passes.

What you need to know?
Is your roof ready for hurricane season??


One of Mike's supporters on his page.
A good place to start.
A good article from last year to read.
If you own a home in Hurricane Country.

https://www.doneriteroofinginc.com/how-to-prepare-your-roof-for-a-hurricane/ Much of the advice is basic and the truth is that basic advice can save your life in a hurricane. If you plan to ride out a hurricane in your home, the best thing you can do is to secure the roof. Then secure the windows. You don't just go out and get a six pack of beer and some candles ....that only happens in the movies ;)

If you live in Florida, especially South Florida, and wonder how you know if the roof needs work? If this weekend's storm pans out as forecast, you'll know. Either way call a professional and have them check I out.
