Hurricane season can be a stressful time, and after a year like 2004, everyone is a little on edge about what this season will bring. Worrying, however, will do you no good at all. What you need is knowledge! Stormtips.com is the source that will supply you with easy-to-read checklists, in depth topical information and emotional advice should you find yourself suffering from Storm Stress.

Those emotional issues were actually the genesis for this site. Mark Dammeyer, President of Simu-US, a leading manufacturer of tubular motors and controls for rolling shutters, awnings and commercial and industrial closures, found many people were anxious about this season. “Last year brought home how easily our lives can be blown apart, and we saw how even moderate damage to your home can cause months of on going tension as you sort through the red tape,” he said.

Finding there were no other sites that really addressed the emotional issues faced by people in hurricane-prone areas, Dammeyer contacted experts that had advice for weathering the storm emotionally. This site presents the stress reducing advice from the experts.
