Two important items to check after last weekend’s storm:
1) If salt water entered your crawl space, check for wet insulation. Â If you suspect that any water touched the insulation, have it removed and replaced. Â Insulation never “dries” and could eventually allow mold to grow on the floor boards above.
2) Most air conditioning compressors, heat pumps, and the electrical junction boxes are mounted on raised platforms- but not always high enough to avoid the water. Â Ask your HVAC company to inspect. Â Salt water will corrode the system.
Beach Access
It’s a tough job, but somebody has to do it!
Between several beach walks and a beach drive, I have personally checked all 7+ miles of beach on the island after last weekend’s storm.
Getting on and off the beach can be challenging due to erosion at the paths. Â Please don’t try to jump- it only causes more sand to crumble from the path.
Best bet for access is from one of the pavilions with a ramp, or a vehicle access driveway.
If you have any questions about a particular area of beach, I am happy to provide my comments.  Also, check my Twitter feed  for beach pictures from all locations.
