Hurricane Season is here! Are you ready? The Atlantic Hurricane season lasts from June 1st until November 1st, with the most activity during August, September and October. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) have already predicted an above-normal season is possible. NOAA is predicting an active storm season with 11 – 17 named storms total with winds of 39 mph or higher.  5 to 9 of those named storms  may turn into hurricanes with winds of 74 mph or higher and 2 to 4 may be major hurricanes ranging from Category 3, 4 or 5 with winds of 111 mph for higher. Are you ready when the storm hits?

Here are a few tips to make sure you are prepared for Hurricane Season:

Have your Emergency Supplies Together!

Make sure your Renter’s Insurance is up to date!

Renter’s Insurance is crucial to have at all times, but especially during a hurricane. Make sure your policy is current and up to date. You don’t want to have to replace all of your items out of pocket just because you missed a payment or forgot to renew. Also, make sure your policy covers enough to replace all of the items inside your apartment including electronics, furniture, kitchen supplies and clothing.

Stay Informed and Stay Aware!

Please keep an eye on your email and MyCamden for updates before and after the storm. During a hurricane, sometimes our community offices must close in order for our Camden employees to get home safely. No worries for you though! Our Camden Contact Center is always open! You can reach a Camden associate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our contact center is watching the storm closely and is always able to help answer any questions. They are also in constant communication with our community managers and maintenance team members for up to the minute details about the community.

Camden is here for you before, during and after a storm. We want to make sure you and your families are safe and prepared.  If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to your community’s office staff. We are always here to help!
