We are currently monitoring the tropical Storm Elsa without an active storm watch or warning on Southwest Florida.


Below we have the latest update as of Wednesday, Jul 7, from NHC. (Slide pictures to see changes)


At Homelax we always try to provide the latest and up-to-date information regarding a storm (Elsa) that may affect our client properties. We are expecting tropical storm Elsa to bring disturbed weather towards Southwest Florida, with wind speeds up to 50-60 mph (97 km/h). We require all outdoor furnitures to be moved inside the house or garage. As well any plants that can be moved. No hurricane shutters are needed at this point of time.
