With March 21 marking the first day of spring, winter, which has been long and grueling for most of the country, should be nearing its end.
Although many look forward to the warmer temperatures, spring can also bring some dangerous weather conditions. Nearly every region in the U.S. will likely experience some sort of severe weather as spring arrives. High winds, tornadoes and hailstorms are just some of the weather threats that come with warming temperatures and thawing snow.
Flooding, in particular, is a major hazard as winter's thaw begins, and since this winter has brought longer periods of deep freeze across the country, record snowfalls and severe winter weather extending further south than usual, commercial property need owners to take proper precautions to protect themselves from the threat of rising waters as temperatures warm.
