The Peak of Hurricane Season is Here!

While hurricane season began in June, we're now entering the peak of the season. Historically, the Atlantic sees three hurricanes by this point in the season, but we've only seen one so far in 2015. However, the number of named storms this season is already slightly ahead of previous years; on average, the eighth storm has arrived around September 24. History shows a broad maximum of hurricanes from late August through September, but a peak typically occurs around September 10 or 11. So how do we prepare for possible hurricanes?

Preparing for a Hurricane


The most important thing to do during a hurricane is keep yourself and your family safe. However, you also want to keep your property safe. This video from The Weather Channel has some tips on how to prepare for a hurricane, even long before the threat is imminent.


To begin preparing for a hurricane, you should build an emergency kit and make a family communications plan. Be sure to know your surroundings and learn the threats of your area. How high is the risk of your property flooding? This will all depend on your elevation level and whether your land is flood-prone. Keep in mind that even if you live (or have a business) inland, you could still be subject to major damages from hurricanes. Big Bags USA® is here to help you be ready!
