I sure hope we never go through another season like the season we had in 2005. However, hearing today's weather news that tropical storm Fay might affect the Florida Keys I visited the National Weather Service National Hurricane Center to see what they had to say about the storm http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ and what the storm's implications are for the Boca Raton, Delray Beach and Boynton Beach Florida area. Rain is what we can expect locally from Fay. Phew!
Many of my clients are snow-birds and they start to call me when they hear the hype on CNN and the Weather Channel so it is important for me to separate the hype from any real storm danger we might be facing. My clients ask me to check on their homes or apartments before a storm to make sure their shutters are closed in preparation. And, after a major storm I also check their property for damage. It is part of the service that is my pleasure to provide my clients.
I trust the National Hurricane Center to give me the latest and most accurate public advisories without any hype. I keep a link to the site on my computer and I also have a link on my Blackberry. The mobile device link is something new from the National Hurrican Center and here is that web address that you might want to add to your address book if your cell phone service includes a data plan: www.nhc.noaa.gov/mobile
Here are the links again:
