It looks like September has started out being very busy in the Atlantic. Hurricanes are lined up all the way from N.C. to Africa.
It is not to late to check your screen enclosure for loose and rusty screws. Every tight screw and bolt helps to keep your enclosure from flying away. Every time there is a very strong wind the joints can loosen a little bit.
A big question comes up every year. Should I remove several sections of screen. The answer is yes, no, or maybe. If you decide to remove sections, wait until the winds are close.
To remove the screen section, all you need to do is get a knife or scissors and cut out the screen, nothing fancy. Some recommend that you take out one upper wall side section on each end of the enclosure and 1-2 on the long back side. It is not generally necessary to remove a section of screen on a small porch or patio.
Some people even buy a roll of screen from Home Depot or Lowes before the storm, because they remember a few years ago when the supply of screen ran very low and was hard to get.
