Hi folks, Harry “5 Star Technician” Cane here, lead installer at Advanced Hurricane Technology (AHT). I’ve been helping Southwest Florida residents prepare for hurricane season for over a decade. With recent predictions of a potentially active hurricane season for 2024, let’s discuss why getting ready now is so crucial.

Understanding the Forecast

Meteorologists at WeatherTiger, as detailed in a recent Florida Today article by Dr. Ryan Truchelut, are forecasting more storms than usual this year. Warmer ocean temperatures and favorable weather patterns mean we should be taking hurricane preparedness very seriously.

The Reality of Hurricanes

While there’s no guarantee a major hurricane will strike our area, I can personally attest to the damage these storms cause and the disruption they bring. During Ian in 2022, we even experienced the worry of an employee going missing in the storm. Thankfully, they were found safe, but it was a powerful reminder of the importance of being prepared for anything.
