No matter where you are located, or what type of business you are in, severe weather in one form or another will eventually strike. A serious lightning storm, a tornado, or a hurricane can all have major impacts upon the operations of a business. A business impact analysis is a good way to prepare for that major weather event that may be just around the corner.
At Earth Networks, we use the most up-to-date professional weather software to educate you on weather events. Here are five actions you can take to mitigate your risks from severe weather.
