Good afternoon to all! Casandra with Pike's Electric here. I hope the all the mothers/mamas out there had a beautiful weekend celebrating you! I celebrated my mom with my dad, my younger sister, and our spouses doing indoor sky diving! What a blast!

Enough about me, I am here checking in to let you know we are within 1 MONTH of hurricane season starting on June 1st, 2024. We have also been getting some really nasty afternoon and late night storms lately. Be sure to secure your lanai and patio furniture for intense winds. Also, we suggest unplugging any outdoor lighting/decor/equipment when a storm approaches as if these items hold moisture, they can trip GFI circuits sometimes causing your garage door openers to go down without power when the GFI trips. This circuit will continue to trip when reset if moisture is still present. Make sure your post light, post, and coach lights are in good, secure condition. If they are loose, brittle, and exposed, these can become projectiles and an issue during storms. We also suggest making sure your outdoor outlet weatherproof covers are in secure condition and not brittle, cracked, or missing. If water gets into these outlets, you can have the same GFI trip issue. We can help you replace any outdoor covers!
There is NO better time than NOW to start preparations for your home and any plans you may have when it comes to staying put for any approaching storms or evacuating. I have attached a Hurricane Preparedness Tips information sheet to this forum for your reference. Be sure to safe this to your device! It is front and back!
