For those of us in the islands we are always tuned in to HURRICANE SEASON and although it is still several months away from OFFICIAL START we are watching the forecasts.. Here is one from our Antigua MET OFFICE … should have us all doing things NOW. as i have been.. I learned that putting CROSS BEAMS across your roof greatly protects it from being “GONE WITH THE WIND” so have now ties all 8 of my roofs like this…. photos to show
FORECAST FOR 2018
ROOF BEFORE CROSS TIES . 
ROOF AFTER CROSS TIES making it much stronger in a hurricane!

Dear Fellow Islanders,According to Colorado State University the 2018 hurricane season is expected to be more active than usual. Current predictions are 14 named tropical storms, 7 hurricanes, and 3 major hurricanes. That being said, it's never to early to start planning and preparing for the season ahead.
Regards, Daniella Seepaul
