#hurricaneidalia is coming for western Florida! Nearly two dozen counties in Florida issued evacuation orders ahead of the storm, which reached hurricane strength early Tuesday. Florida residents faced an eerie echo on Tuesday as Hurricane Idalia intensified over the Gulf of Mexico’s abnormally warm waters, forcing a growing number of people to evacuate from communities still scarred by Hurricane Ian’s landfall 11 months ago. After swiping Cuba’s western shoreline, Idalia (pronounced ee-DAL-ya) became a hurricane early Tuesday and was expected to continue to strengthen before coming ashore as a Category 3 storm on Wednesday morning, likely in the Big Bend area of Florida, where the north-south portion of the peninsula curves toward the east-west portion of the Panhandle. #fireservice #wildfires #emergencymanagement #emergencyresponders #riskmanagement #insuranceindustry #insurance #crisismanagement #crisiscommunications #socialmedia #businesscontinuity #firefighters #climatechange #familypreparedness #brma #flooding #stormsurge #PublicHealth

ESP Teams are keeping close eye on the progression of #hurricaneLee on the East Coast. We will be ready if any local communities are effected. "Computer model trends for Lee have shown the hurricane taking a turn to the north early next week. But exactly when that turn occurs and how far west Lee will manage to track by then will play a huge role in how close it gets to the US. Several steering factors at the surface and upper levels of the atmosphere will determine how close Lee will get to the East Coast." https://lnkd.in/gVKvjSHV ✴️#ExpeditedServicePartners #EmergencyResponseService #ConstructionMitigation #DisasterRecovery #EmergencyServices #dehumidifier

Business Insurance Advisor at McGriff | Helping Businesses in the Petroleum Equipment, Construction, and Manufacturing Industries.
Idalia is predicted to intensify rapidly and reach major hurricane strength before hitting the Gulf coast of Florida. According to a senior hurricane specialist Daniel Brown, steady intensification is expected to begin on Tuesday. In times like this, a business continuity plan can be the difference between successfully recovering from a business interruption and going out of business. Proper development, implementation, and maintenance of a business continuity plan can ensure that your business is prepared for any unforeseen circumstances. Stay safe and prepared.
Tropical Storm Idalia is set to strengthen as it heads north through the Gulf of Mexico, threatening to strike Florida’s west coast Wednesday as a tree-snapping major hurricane. #TropicalStormIdalia #McGriff Please see our 'Weathering The Storm' guide to help protect your families, employees, and businesses: https://bit.ly/44BWSik

The National Hurricane Center is projecting Beryl to make landfall as a Category 1 hurricane along the lower or middle Texas coast. That’s where it warns of “a danger of life-threatening storm surge inundation,” and “damaging hurricane-force winds.” In addition, heavy rains, totaling at least 5 to 10 inches, are projected inland, bringing the threat of flash and urban flooding. And this system appears prone to produce a few quick-hitting tropical tornadoes, which could affect the greater #Houston metro area even if landfall ends up being much farther to the west.
