We are ready to enjoy all there is to experience during the winter season! The dip in temperature and the arrival of the holidays is enticing after a hot and muggy summer.
But the winter season also means the arrival of potentially damaging winter weather.
Winter Predictions Across the Nation
The winter season looks drastically different across the United States for this coming year! It looks like we may be experiencing a colder and wetter season than in years’ past.
However, we all know that Mother Nature can be unpredictable. We need to be prepared for every seasonal possibility as we could be surprised with a snowstorm or ice storm at any time.
Winter in Bartow County
Winter weather is all about dressing in layers in Bartow County. We can experience mild temperatures during the day, but then they can plummet to below freezing at night!
That means we can be surprised by some snow at any point during the season.
Now is the perfect time to start preparing your home for the arrival of the winter season. Preventing ice and water damage can help you avoid costly repairs in the long run.
Addressing Any Home issues
We are vulnerable to sleet, ice and the occasional snowstorm in northern Georgia. That is why it is crucial to have a fully stocked emergency kit and easy access to a weather radio to quickly learn of any developing conditions.
You should also walk around your home and address any moisture problems or drafty windows and doors. Weatherproofing these areas can help prevent water damage and mold growth.
You also need to spend some time preparing your yard for the change in season. Cleaning out your gutters and removing debris from your roof can help prevent water backup and eventual water issues inside your home.
Even with your best efforts, you can still suffer from water or storm damage during the winter season. Remember that your SERVPRO of Bartow County team is here for you day or night. Call us anytime!
If you experience damage in a winter storm, call or contact us. We have the experience and equipment to get your home back to normal.
