Are you ready for the Spring rains?
3/9/2021 (Permalink)
The Chicago area was hit with more than a year's worth of snowfall in a three week period in February, 2021. Also, we saw several consecutive days where the temperature never hit the freezing mark.
With the frozen ground, and a lot of potential snowmelt, are you ready if we get hit with a Spring thunderstorm?
If you can do it safely, check your gutters to ensure they are clean and debris free. The heavy snowfall and ice storm may have loaded your gutters with lots of leaves and other debris that will clog if we get rain.
Check your basement (or lower level) for boxes or contents that would be damaged if they got wet, and move them to a place of safety. Like the old adage goes: "Prepare for the worst and expect the best".
