Storms in the tropics: Jacksonville attorney says act before the next storm hits

In the past two weeks, storms have torn the roof off a hangar at a nonprofit near the Brunswick Golden Isles Airport, set a Waycross church on fire after a lightning strike, and dropped a tree onto a Jacksonville couple’s home just days after they closed on it for the first time. Now, with the National Hurricane Center monitoring a system in the Gulf that carries a 30% chance of tropical development through Sunday, a local attorney says homeowners and renters across Northeast Florida need to act before the next storm arrives, not after.
