It’s #HurricaneSeason, but it’s not too late to prepare. From high winds to rain to tropical cyclone-induced tornadoes, storms don’t stop at the coast. Steps in @IBHS_org’s #HurricaneReady guide can help protect your home. Start now at ibhs.org/hurricaneready.

At @IBHS_org, we turn research into real-world solutions to protect families from severe weather and wildfires. ⛈️🔥 Check out how we’re closing the gaps in building science on @CBSEveningNews “Eye on America” with @CBSNews & @JonVigliotti: tinyurl.com/5ypc46j3

We can’t stop wildfires, and we’re not powerless. 🔥Embers often ignite homes, but science shows how to reduce the risk with a 5-ft noncombustible buffer around your home. 📺See @BillWeirCNN explore @IBHS_org solutions in Adaptation Nation. Watch here: cnn.com/videos/title-2…

Your roof is the home’s first line of defense against severe weather. Make sure yours is #ThunderstormReady this spring. @IBHS_org research has identified ways to help you prepare. Follow our tips at ibhs.org/thunderstormre… to protect your property.

Last week, @IBHS_org researchers analyzed 200+ structures after the #LACountyFires. This work drives our mission to turn science into solutions. Our Early Insights report explores elements that impacted the fire spread at ibhs.org/wp-content/upl….

Embers often lead to destruction during #wildfires. They can travel for miles and ignite combustible materials in our neighborhoods. @IBHS_org research points to the need to create a 5-ft noncombustible buffer around homes to reduce this risk. @AP apnews.com/article/califo…

Heartbroken by the Los Angeles County fires, I’m hopeful we can minimize future #wildfire destruction. Embers can drift miles from a wildfire, igniting anything combustible. Creating a 5-foot noncombustible buffer around a home can reduce ember ignitions. usatoday.com/story/news/nat…

Now's the time to get ready for winter and prep your home for the cold. @IBHS_org has you covered with a checklist in our #WinterReady guide at ibhs.org/winterready.

Enjoyed chatting with my colleagues at #NRMCA.

Collaboration is critical as we work to end the destruction of homes and communities from wildfire. Check out how @IBHS_org and @NFPA are accelerating our joint efforts: ibhs.org/ibhs-news-rele…

Stay safe out there, people! And take a read about modern building codes... thanks @CBOMagazine

Based on more than a decade of #research, @IBHS_org has identified key actions to reduce #wildfire risk. Sharing this with families at @FireSafeMarin’s Ember Stomp Festival helps put our science into action. Ready to join them? Visit wildfireprepared.org.

Reducing wildfire risk requires resilience at both the parcel and community levels. One year after the devastating fire in Lahaina, @IBHS_Org shares insights on the fire's rapid spread and takeaways for a more resilient future. Find the report at ibhs.org/lahaina.

We are not powerless against wildfires. #Wildfire research has identified science-backed ways to meaningfully reduce a home’s wildfire risk. Wildfire mitigation STARTS at the parcel level and can be a pathway to more wildfire-resilient communities.

While no home is hurricane-proof, we are not powerless against the impact of tropical cyclones. #Beryl reminds us that the time to take action is now. @WIRED wired.com/story/hurrican…

@fpaaustralia @IBHS_org So enjoyed your visit!

Today is the start of the 2024 #HurricaneSeason, and it’s not too late to take on projects around your home to strengthen it against high wind and torrential rain. Get started today at ibhs.org/hurricaneready. #HurricanePrep

Prepare your property for #wildfires or #SevereWeather now. Use science-backed checklists & ready guides from @IBHS_org to get started and narrow Mother Nature's impact. #HurricanePrepWeek #WildfirePreparednessWeek Act now: ibhs.org/guidance/homed…

Severe weather risks have increased. Modern building codes help. Today, @IBHS_org released the 5th edition of Rating the States, evaluating code adoption, enforcement, and licensing in 18 states along the hurricane coast. See where your state stands: ibhs.org/public-policy/…
