Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria resulted in tens of billions of dollars in damage in 2017.

Now, Global Weather Oscillations (GWO) predicts 2018 will result in another year of “above normal” storms out of the Atlantic. NOAA classifies storms using the Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) index. ACE index above 111 is “above normal,” and those with an ACE above 152 are considered “extremely active.”

GWO correctly predicted the hyperactive 2017 Atlantic hurricane season. The organization was so accurate; they predicted the United States would have six named storms, three hurricanes making landfall and even predicted where they would occur.

“…GWO has issued the most accurate predictions by any organization during the past ten years. The preseason zone predictions are so accurate – updates to the forecasts are not required during the hurricane season.” CISION

The Claims Journal reported that scientists at Climate Forecast Applications Network also predict a turbulent 2018 Hurricane Season.

“They calculate an 80 percent probability of an above normal 2018 Atlantic hurricane season. Specifically, they expect it to have a total Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) of 132 (+/-50) and 1.7 (+/-1.1) US landfalls. These values are near the averages for the active period since 1995.” Claims Journal

Aldelano Solar Cold Chain Solutions is in the process of shipping Antiqua, Barbuda and the British Virgin Islands several Solar ColdBoxes, Solar PowerPaks/Generators, and nearly 100 Solar WaterMakers. These solar, off-grid resources provide enough solar power for a single home or village, clean drinking water generated from moisture in the air and solar cold storage for food or medicine.

Preparation is key for hurricane season. The 2018 hurricane season warnings provide an opportunity for government organizations, non-profits, and businesses to learn from last year’s mistakes and prepare in advance. When Aldelano Solar Cold Chain Solutions products are purchased in advance, they can offer immediate emergency assistance to communities in dire need.

The Solar PowerPak can be used to power a single home or entire building if power is not available during or after a storm. Power independent of the grid can be crucial for hospitals or emergency responders trying to provide medical care.

The Solar ColdBox provides cold storage for food or medicine. When there is no power, medicines and perishable foods are at risk. The Solar ColdBox is an industrial grade cold storage unit that ensures emergency responders, shelters and hospitals have the necessary cold storage for life-saving resources.

The Solar WaterMaker generates clean water from moisture in the air. Hurricane flooding often compromises water, leaving communities at risk for waterborne illnesses. The Solar WaterMaker can provide communities, shelters, hospitals, and emergency responders with clean drinking water.

Prepare for hurricane season with robust, solar lifesaving resources from Aldelano Solar Cold Chain Solutions.
