March is The Start of Rain Storms and Severe Weather

2/25/2022 (Permalink)

Severe rain storms start occurring in the month of March leading to possible flooding.

March marks the start of the spring severe weather and storm season.  SERVPRO of East Davie/Cooper City believes that these three months of danger that can imperil the unprepared.  Data published by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reveals that severe weather events are becoming more frequent and more devastating. 

ARE YOU PREPARED?   NOAA reported that last year alone (2021) delivered 20 “billion-dollar” weather or climate disaster events. It’s not unusual to see severe weather in the spring. Whenever you have warm, moist air colliding with cool, dry air, you have the conditions for creating a thunderstorm, along with the possibility of lightning strikes, floods, hail, high winds, rip currents, and even wildfires and tornadoes. The problem is, you can’t prevent these severe weather events and you can’t predict very far in advance when and where they will hit.

 STEPS TO PREPARE    The only sensible approach is to take steps in advance to protect your family and property, especially as these disasters become more common.  SERVPRO of East Davie /Cooper City urges area home and business owners to check out state and federal resources online for tips on planning and preparing for a severe weather emergency now, as the spring severe weather season arrives. One resource is the National Center for Environmental Health of The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which offers suggestions for creating an emergency kit and preparing family members for severe weather emergencies at https://www.cdc.gov/nceh/features/springweather/index.html.
