Latest FloodBag update

This week’s Blog starts with a quick look around at the weather, and luckily according to the Met Office and Environment Agency we in the UK are not forecast any severe weather events as I write this blog. In fact this week looks to be hot and sunny in England and Wales with only the chance of thunder later in the week, these may bring very localised flooding if there is intense local rain, but on the whole there is very little chance of any flood event for the next five days.

On the other hand if you live in North West Florida you will have already felt the effects of Tropical Storm Claudette which thankfully did not get enough time over the warm waters to gather hurricane strength, but towards the end of the week it may be worth keeping a weather eye out for Hurricane Bill and its effects. All the weather models thankfully steer Bill away from Florida but its effects as a heavy rain event may impact on us here in the UK in about 10 days or so, keep an eye on the weather forecast.

It the world of FloodBag we are working with several Local Authorities who are looking to use the FloodBag system to protect school course work and IT equipment from the effects of flooding. A student's coursework is irreplaceable and if it's lost in a flood it can be very distressing and disruptive for the individual.

Our FB08 was designed specifically to take a four drawer filing cabinet so a school or college can protect valuable coursework and files. For more information on the FloodBag call us on freephone 0800 045 7898 or visit www.floodbag.co.uk
