Hurricanes pose a huge threat, and an opportunity, to hotels and other businesses in coastal states.
Hurricanes can cause heavy damage to hotels, restaurants, and other businesses within 100 miles of the coast.
Deadly storm surge can result in the inundation of normally dry ground and buildings for many miles inland away from the coast.
Torrential rains can cause inland flash flooding that can inundate and cut off hotels.
Power outages can last for days after the storm passes.
At the same time, the call to close or stay open can cost your business tens of thousands of dollars, or result in disaster.
In addition, an approaching hurricane can yield tremendous opportunities for hotels to maximize revenue by employing appropriate reservation controls based on accurate forecast data.
Gathering and assessing weather forecast information from multiple sources takes tremendous time for hotel teams.
It can be subject to errors in interpretation This can result in over-reaction that can result in lost revenue
It can result in lost time in preparation, and the need for scrambling for scarce supplies at the last minute.
Conversely, it can lead to over preparation, and result in spoilage of unnecessarily purchased supplies.
The right decision can pay off handsomely.
The wrong decision can be catastrophic.
No one does it better than the National Hurricane Center
Their steely-nerved forecasts for Hurricane Laura in August 2020 and Hurricane Dorian in September 2019 saved millions from costly evacuations in the Houston and South Florida areas. Urgent wording in forecasts for Hurricane Laura undoubtedly saved many people in Southwest Louisiana. And their location prediction three and a half days before landfall was off by less than one mile!!
