Hurricane Wilma 2005

HURRICANE WILMA 2005

Visitors always ask me, living here year-round, don’t you miss the seasons? My response is we have seasons here – Tourist season and Hurricane season!

The 2007 Atlantic Hurricane Season starts June 1st. According to a report released today, experts at the NOAA Climate Prediction Center are projecting a 75 percent chance that the Atlantic Hurricane Season will be above normal this year—showing the ongoing active hurricane era remains strong. With the start of the hurricane season upon us, NOAA recommends those in hurricane-prone regions begin their preparation plans.

I am so hoping they are wrong! But just in case, I will be prepared. I’ve been reading about some new and improved hurricane protection systems that look worthy of further investigation. One example is a product called Armor Screen®. Check it out: http://www.armorscreen.com

Stay safe,
