In the wake of hurricane Irene we thought it would be pertinent to talk about Alabama’s long history with the storms of fury. It’s never too early to be prepared and we’re gearing up for another bad season so keep the following in mind:
Timeline: The average length between hurricanes that have hit Alabama is about 7 years and the longest stretch without a hurricane is only 9 years. It’s important to remember that Wild Blue Deals serves Alabama and you should get online when a storm’s coming to read up on the latest safety warnings.
Gulf Shores: If you live in and around the Gulf Shores area you’re likely to be one of the worst hit in the event of a hurricane. Make sure you’ve got up to date flood insurance and you’re covered for hurricane damages and consider investing in storm shutters if you’re anywhere near the water.
Statistics: They’re not set in stone but statistics say that Alabama’s due to be struck again sometime before the end of 2012. Start preparing now to get yourself ready when a hurricane forms.
