STORM PREPARATION

BYC has developed a Storm/Hurricane Preparedness Plan (SHPP). The SHPP includes a set of tiered warning messages for members as well as plans to move the Club and EBSF's boats, floats, and equipment to the parking area of Club grounds if warranted, given the predicted severity of the storm. All BYC members should read BYC's SHPP and be ready to take action and fulfill their responsibilities as outlined in the plan. ​

Key Messages for Members in BYC's SHPP:
1. Pay attention to Club’s emails, website, and on-site signs 
2. Remove your dinghies, kayaks, and other stuff three or more days before the storm
3. Only park your car in designated zones                     
4. Volunteer to help at the Club before the storm
5. Don’t come to the Club in the two days before the storm hits (unless you are volunteering to help)  
 

Warning Messages for Members

BYC will attempt to issue storm warning messages to members via email, through signs at the Club, and potentially via phone calls in the weeks and days prior to the storm's arrival. Given the unpredictability of the weather, BYC cannot guarantee that we will always be able to issues these warning.  Always keep your eye on the weather. The timing of these warnings will depend on the available weather forecast information.  The Chief Steward will make the decision of when and which warnings will be issued.
