South Florida Avoids Major Hurricanes Since 2005, but Residents are Encouraged to be Prepared
Ft. Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) July 19, 2013 -- It's official, summer is midway, and hurricane season is upon us. June 1st marked the beginning of the hurricane season, and this year is predicted to be mild. However, Floridians have learned (the hard way) to be prepared for the hurricane season which commonly includes many tropical storms, severe thunderstorms, and flooding in numerous neighborhoods around South Florida. Even though this season is projected to be tame, residents should still prepare for the worst. Bryant Security Corporation, a Miami security company issues a hurricane safety checklist to help residents prepare for hurricane season and the accompanying storms.
South Florida residents remember Hurricane Andrew and more recently, Hurricane Sandy. The hurricanes and accompanying storms violently ripped through South Florida, uprooting trees and damaging homes. Neighborhoods were powerless for days, and food stores were closed. Although this season is projected to be mild, Shay Ben-David, President of Bryant Security Corporation, encourage residents to still be prepared for the worst. “Extra non-perishable food items, water and flashlights are still good items to stock up on this hurricane season, mild or not. We still encourage families to take extra precautions, and prepare for the season.” The Operations Manager at Bryant Security, Rene Zerquera, has compiled a safety checklist, which includes a list of items to keep in stock during the hurricane season.
Hurricane Safety Checklist:
-Extra non-perishable food items (canned food, foods that don’t require refrigeration)
-Flashlights and candles
-Extra Water
-Make sure your pets are safe
-First Aid Kit
-Non prescription drugs (aspirin, ointment)
