With the incoming hurricane, now’s the time to take action and protect your home or business property. Properly placing sandbags is a way to keep water out as much as possible. Here’s how to do it: 1️⃣ Place sandbags in areas where water could seep in, like doorways, garages, and lower-level windows. 2️⃣ Layer them tightly, overlapping like bricks for maximum defense. 3️⃣ Ensure bags are filled halfway with sand to allow for better stacking and coverage. We’re all in this together & if water does get in, we’re here to help you with the water damage or mold damage after the storm passes. For now, PREPARE PREPARE PREPARE. Stay safe, Tampa Bay! 💙 📍 1536 S Missouri Ave Ste A Clearwater, FL 33756 🌐www.moldsolutions.com 📲 727-276-4787 #tampabay #hurricaneprep #waterdamageprevention #moldsolutions #waterdamagerestoration

If you know anyone in the hurricane zone! This was written by a family who has experienced this before and wants to help others. Thank you to Christina Zajic for resharing the original post on Facebook. Reshare/send to whomever could use it. Here in Minnesota this is fully uncharted territory to me, but I’m hoping this can help someone! 🙏 Original Full Post: https://lnkd.in/gmBTffPn “As a Florida Shores Hurricane Ian Flood Victim— here are some things I’d wished I’d thought of/things we did. (Since you cant control it, youll want to have your head in the game. This isn’t to cause fear, it’s to equip people because we’ve been through it and wish we would’ve known. Hindsight is always 20/20). If you think your home could flood with recent happenings/track record, then maybe pay attention. We got through it and if you do flood, I promise you will too. These things may seem extreme but trust me, at the first site of our yard flooding, and this is what we are doing: 🌀 BEFORE YOU FLOOD/PREVENTIVE MEASURES: 🌀 •have your volume on/download apps. A flash flood warning woke me up and saved me from losing way more than I could’ve. •Documents, books, things in low drawers, pictures or basically anything on lower ground, move to countertops. Know exactly where your important info is in case you need it. That includes for your car, we lost 3 of those too. •We lost all electric appliances because they were in our low kitchen cabinets. Move them up higher (food processor, crockpot, griddles). •dry food- get out of lower cabinets. You’re going to be hungry while you wait for rescue. We had hot cheese and grapes to eat. Don’t be us. •We kept our bandaids/sanitary stuff/meds/blow dryers in a low bathroom cabinet and lost it all. Anything you think you might need that isn’t in a bottle, move it up the night before. •Turn your breaker off as soon as you start flooding even if your power is already out because you won’t be thinking of it, trust me. Somehow my magical husband did, but I sure didn’t. This can hurt you or a lineman when it back feeds. •watch out for extension cords from your generator into the home with standing water. Seems silly to tell you that, but your brain is going to be in shock already, so let’s not shock the rest of you. •If you have gas cans ready for your generator, don’t set them on the ground!!! Ours floated away and created toxic water all around us and in our house. •have a bucket of some sort to keep anything electronic dry for immediate use. (Phone/flash lights). •Get your pet food off of the ground. Have leashes on the table next to your food to get ready to leave on a moment’s notice •Know where your paddle board/kayak is if you have one and be ready to use it. It saved us … Lastly…breathe.” [See the original post for so much more, including what to do POST hurricane! Abbreviated here due to the character limit.

As Hurricane Milton, a formidable Category 4 storm, makes its dramatic landfall near Siesta Key, Florida, I'm reminded of the critical importance of resilience—not just for communities, but for every individual facing uncertainty. In a world that’s increasingly unpredictable, whether through volatile markets or natural disasters, we must equip ourselves to adapt and respond. As Florida cities brace for impact, it's a poignant reminder that preparation and strategic planning are indispensable, not just in business but in life. The quick succession of natural events, like Hurricane Helene's recent devastation, underscores a lesson we must internalize: the ability to pivot swiftly and effectively can make all the difference. Just as FEMA and local authorities stand ready to act, we too must cultivate a mindset of readiness in our professional and personal lives. Let's use this moment to reflect on our contingency plans—whether it’s ensuring our teams are agile, our operations are diversified, or our skills are adaptable. In the face of disruption, those who anticipate and adapt are the ones who rise above. Stay safe, stay prepared, and remember: true strength lies in our ability to respond dynamically to the storms life throws our way.

🔴 As Hurricane Milton continues on its path toward Florida, all major roads are jam-packed with residents trying to get out of harm's way. Landfall is expected to occur sometime late Wednesday or early Thursday. Expect delays on all transports originating from or destined to and from Florida. 😧 Team Alex’s homes and offices are directly in the path of Hurricane Milton, which is expected to make landfall on late Wednesday. We will likely be slower in responding to customer inquiries via email and text before, during, and after the hurricane. We kindly request our customers' understanding as we navigate Hurricane Milton's impact on Team Alex's offices. While we are well-prepared, we anticipate potential delays in our ability to promptly respond to customer inquiries via email and text due to possible power and internet service interruptions. Please be assured that we have contingency plans in place. Additionally, we will be operating with a reduced staff as most of our employees have evacuated to seek safe shelter.  We appreciate your understanding and will keep you updated on our status using the following link: https://lnkd.in/eKeXMt62.

Do you know what to do – or which way to go – when a mandatory evacuation occurs due to an approaching hurricane? It can already at times feel like everyone is on the road in South Florida, so imagine how difficult navigating I-95, Florida’s Turnpike, or I-275 will be when a major storm is bearing down on the state. That’s why it’s important to have a backup plan: ✅ Identify multiple possible spread-out destinations depending on the storm’s movement ✅ Plan alternate routes to take if one of the afore-mentioned highways is too busy ✅ Keep your car filled up and in proper repair; running out of gas or breaking down can put you and your family in peril ✅ Be aware of where your nearest shelter is located, in case you cannot evacuate for reasons beyond your control ✅ Have a ‘go bag,’ an emergency bag filled with essentials, that you can grab at a moment’s notice Don’t forget the best plan to ensure the safety of your home when a hurricane threatens it – arming it with impact windows and doors from Statewide. For one sure thing in a time of uncertainty – Choose Wise, Choose Statewide Windows & Doors. ☎️ 561-786-3349 🛡️ https://lnkd.in/eP58YAhr #StatewideWindowsDoors #ImpactWindows #HurricaneSeason2024 #HurricaneSeason #EvacuationPlan #CommercialProperty
