Hurricane season

As is well documented it is the start of the hurricane season. And everyone here in South Florida is looking toward the season with bated breath. With the past hurricane seasons causing homeowner losses and insurance rates what they are here, everyone is hoping that there is no hurricane activity this year. Some small business owners flat out told me that their businesses will not survive an overly active season. With property taxes out of control, homeowners insurance a fiasco, the real estate market in a downturn, hurricane damage is the last thing we need.

Well, already I heard we just had some tropical storm. Hopefully that is not an indication of what is to come.

Interestingly, the first issue of the magazine had a couple articles geared toward hurricane preparedness. Check out the first issue here.
