Today’s discussion bought to you by the weather
As I wake up I hear the howling wind outside and my first thoughts go to the recently repaired canvas roof on one of our units. I then check the weather reports, it is going to get worse before it gets better. What can I do I have been here before? 1. Finish my morning coffee, not a lot will change in the next 30 minutes. 2. Get into my wind protection clothes and go an inspect. 3. Check every guy rope, tighten any loose, flapping canvas is more likely to cause damage. Repair any guy ropes that look damaged. I did this late last year so I should be OK. 4. Check the areas repaired, I’ve got some more ‘type a’ tape so I might add another layer as reinforcement. 5. Double check hot tub lids are secured they have a habit in the past of turning into huge frisbees. 6. Finally make sure any item that could blow around is secured. Then time to hunker down and wait for the storm to pass.
