Although Southwest Florida is seemingly perfect, there are things that you'll need to watch out for to make the most out of your stay here, whether you're a snow bird or a full-time resident.

It may seem like every time you turn on the TV, meteorologists are talking about another storm forming in the Gulf. So, what does it all mean and when should you be concerned? In order to know how to prepare for any incoming inclement weather, you first need to know about the different types of storms, how they're formed and what to expect if one hits. After all, we're still in the heart of hurricane season, and in fact, this time of the year tends to be the most active. Here's all you need to know about the anatomy of a storm, so that you can be sure you're adequately prepared.

We deal with hurricane season every year. From June 1^st through November 30^th, Southwest Florida residents get prepared for any inclement weather that may or may not happen. And although a devastating storm may not have hit us in the past couple of years, it doesn't mean that we can expect the same this year. After all, it IS 2020! Anything can and will happen, right? We're certainly hoping that Southwest Florida will remain safe from any catastrophes, but we can't control the weather. What we can control is how we assist our community in getting prepared if a storm's arrival is imminent.

You decided that new window treatments were on your to-do list this year. You called a reputable window treatment company, scheduled your measurements and placed your order for a custom product. The friendly, knowledgeable installer arrived and just like that, you're now the proud owner of shiny, brand new window treatments! So, now what?! Your window treatments are a big part of your home and there is certain maintenance that goes along with keeping them in tip-top shape for years to come. Depending on what type of product you choose for your home, cleaning and maintenance practices will vary.

Nowadays, it's simple to get all your home improvement needs handled in one location. Big box stores, like Home Depot and Lowe's carry virtually any product, appliance and tool available and are conveniently located throughout your city. Although it may sound easy to get your window treatment needs handled by the big guys, you may wonder just what type of experience their pros have and what the quality will be of the final product. When it comes to your window treatments, quality, experience and value matter, and you typically won't be able to find that at a big chain store. As more and more Southwest Florida homeowners are seeking to redesign their homes, they're seeing just how big a role window treatments play in a home's design.

If all that's happened in 2020 was going to be any indication of how hurricane season was going to go, it's no surprise that this season has gotten off to a very strange start. During hurricane season, which runs from June 1^st through November 30^th, anything can happen, and each season is typically different from the last. That's why it's difficult to accurately predict the season too far in advance and many updates are given throughout the season to keep those affected informed. This year has shown us some unusual happenings when it comes to storms, landfall and weather patterns, which have gotten many meteorologists talking...2020 is quite the year indeed!
