Are You a Target for this Year's Hurricane Season?

In addition to storm surge protection and inland flooding protection, the communities in Southern Florida and other coastal areas are a huge target for this year's hurricane season.  We see hurricanes come each and every year, but are those of you living in those areas prepared?  The government are not the only ones that should get protection. Will you stockpile flood protection products or wait until the storm hits and its too late?  There is a lengthy turn-around for more Big Bags USA product to be made, so there might be a limited supply by the time the hurricanes really hit hard!

Hurricane destruction can come in many different forms including storm surge, heavy rainfall, inland flooding, high winds, tornadoes and rip currents.  Gaining a better understanding of tropical cyclones and hurricanes will help you to make more informed decisions on your risk and what actions you should take.

Inland Flooding


When these powerful storms move from the water to covering land, they lose wind strength but continue to dump massive amounts of water to not only those communities right on the coast, but also inland. The excess water added to streams, rivers and lakes poses a serious threat of inland flooding. These types of floods account for more than 50 percent of hurricane-related deaths each year.
