Backyard Prep: Secure Spaces for Fall Storms
• Secure outdoor furniture with straps or weights to prevent them from becoming projectiles during high winds.
• Trim trees and shrubs to remove weak or dead limbs that could damage your property or power lines.
• Reinforce sheds and outbuildings with additional bracing and secure doors with heavy-duty latches.
Preparing your backyard for fall storms
As the leaves change and the air cools, fall storms become a significant threat. These storms can bring strong winds and rain, potentially damaging outdoor items, sheds, and furniture. Hurricane-force winds and autumn gales can cause considerable damage, so securing your backyard is essential for safety and preventing costly repairs.
