SERVPRO Serves Storm Restoration

September is hurricane season, and we first say it with Hurricane Dorian as our headliner. Hurricane Dorian made wave in the Bahamas, killing and injuring so many people and animals. The Hurricane was a category 3 hurricane but grew. The National Hurricane Center is also monitoring Hurricane Gabriel, which is said to not be a threat to us or the Atlantic ocean. Hurricane Gabriel is forming in the north-central Atlantic. Meteorologist say it should transition to a smaller, less severe size by this week. There is no threat to the east coast. An area in the Atlantic ocean is experiencing showers and abnormal weather patterns, so this area is being monitored additionally.

Hurricane Dorian's destruction in the Bahamas was very severe and sad. Click here to view the CNN article with photos of its destruction. Thousands and thousands are displaced from their homes. CNN reported about 45 people dead and so many are injured. Hundreds of people are missing. The after math is so sad. 

There is also watch of a potential Tropical Storm Humberto. Remember to call SERVPRO of Northern Rhode Island at 401-949-9955 for your storm remediation. Contact our office manager Lorraine@SERVPROmckendall.com if you need additional assistance as well.
