In the wake of Hurricane Michael, a natural disaster that is being called one of the largest storms of the century, people across the nation have been re-evaluating their disaster preparedness plans. What would you do in the event that your home was damaged by a vicious and unprecedented storm? At ReBLDing, we want to help put your mind at ease. Below, we’ll go over some of the ways we can assist you if an unexpected emergency ever does make its way to your front doorstep. 

Storm of the Century: Or is it? 
With winds exceeding 155 mph, massive tidal swells, and torrential rains, Michael recently wreaked havoc across the Florida panhandle with an unbridled fury. Though this recent hurricane has been dubbed a once in a lifetime storm, you may be interested to find out that these “rare” natural disasters have actually been on the rise as of late. The rate of unprecedented weather phenomena has been steeply increasing over the last 25 years in the US and all over the world. Hurricane Michael and other severe weather events have been on the rise over the last two-and-a-half decades. 

Hurricanes in California 
California residents know that although rare, hurricanes are a legitimate threat to coastal residents. Surprisingly, the only thing preventing hurricanes from reaching areas like California more often is the generally low water temperature. A change as small as 5 degrees could mean that California residents may encounter severe weather more regularly. Recently, California has experienced high winds, surf advisories, thunderstorms, and flash flood watches after hurricanes John, Rosa, and Sergio. In light of these most recent extreme weather events, we want to inform homeowners of our excellent emergency services. 

Whether this increase of unprecedented events is due to climate change, the earth’s natural rhythm or something entirely different, storms like this have a way of reminding us all to think seriously about our options. What would you do if faced with a disaster? No need to stress; ReBLDing is here and ready to meet all of your emergency needs.

Hurricane Tips: After the Storm

There are also quite a few things that you can do to ensure your safety after a storm has passed.

• Keep an eye on local news – Local news will have helpful announcements, storm updates, and can direct you to local resources. Having a hand-cranked radio available may be a good idea. 

• Consider where you’ll go – You may not have immediate access to your home after a big storm. Prepare a game plan so that you and your family can rendezvous at a specific location if your home is inaccessible. 

• Watch for signs of danger – Downed powerlines and gasoline leaks can be very dangerous after a storm. Use common sense and avoid areas that have been impacted until they’ve been cleared.
