Be sure to prepare for high winds prior to the event to protect your home or commercial property.

It's Spring here in Southern New Hampshire. The weather is changing constantly. It can be difficult to predict. Warm temps, cold temps. Sunshine, then rain. Frosty mornings, comfy afternoons. However, one element that seems to be consistent is the wind. While wind can be a nuisance and add a chill to the air, it can also be potentially devastating to your residential or commercial property. Here are a few things to consider when protecting your property from strong winds:

• Trim trees or shrubs close to your home
• Remove debris from the yard (outdoor furniture, toys, etc.)
• Cover windows with plywood if sever winds or storms are approaching
• Ensure materials such as roofing are, fencing, chimneys are properly maintained
• Keep rain gutters clear and clean

Stay up to date with current weather forecasts and be sure to prepare for heavy winds prior to, rather than during the event.
