Hurricane Hurricane Resource Links Hurricane Protection Hurricanes are a big concern to property and home owners in Palm Beach County.
Damage caused by hurricanes can be devastating.
Protecting your investment takes planning and should be completed long before a hurricane threatens. Buildings can be damaged or destroyed by high winds, rain and flooding caused by hurricanes. There is also the added danger of wind-borne debris which can break windows and damage roof coverings and walls, allowing high winds inside a building. Once the wind gets inside, powerful uplift forces can literally lift the roof right off a building. The time to prepare your buildings is before there is threat of a hurricane.
