 Window Safety for children thisSummer in Bronxville, NY 10708 When the weather's warm early this summer, it can be tempting to open your windows and let in a fresh breeze. But did you know this is a safety risk for young kids? Help prevent tragic falls with these window safety pointers.  Window Safety Do's and Don'tsDO: Ensure all windows are closed and locked when you are not in the room. Children can push windows open. DON'T: Allow windows to open more than 4 inches. This prevents small children from being able to squeeze through. DO: Keep windows open at the top, not at the bottom, whenever possible. Kids are less likely to access the opening. DON'T: Assume that a screen makes the window safe. Screens aren't strong enough to hold even a small child. DO: Install window safety devices...

 Wild overnight wind gusts may have cut power to some sump pumps, causing flooded basements in Bronxville, NY 10708. Our HUGE maple tree out back that could fall on our garage and cut all power to the house.   You know all about sump pumps, if you have a basement in a Bronxville or area home or business, in southern Westchester.   If a power outage from a rain or snow storm has ever shut down your sump pump and flooded your basement, you may have been a little worried this weekend. Our days of heavy rain and big wind gusts could have caused a power outage, or a brown out, so be sure to check your basement and make sure the pump is on, as we greet the windy week ahead.  This is especially important in our older homes in the LowerHud, like our 1898 colonial we're renovating -- it's for sa...

 For weeks, we have been relatively rain free and New York has actually been in drought through early September.  Our horse, Krys, has been out of grass for weeks at the barn where she lives upstate...it's like a dust bowl this summer.But, now forecasters tells us we'll have a rainy week and weekend.So, check your basement as the rain moves in and hangs over us, off and on all week and through the weekend.  Most days will have a shower or two, but thunderstorms are predicted and that means a lot of water in a short period of time in Westchester County.  We need the rain and may get up to 1" this week. This Thursday looks dry and I'm heading up to ride Krys, but rain returns Friday and may last through Sunday.  Keep those sump pumps going and check your drains as the leaves start to turn...

Flooding rains can damage homes and businesses in Bronxville, NY 10708 -- How is outlook for 2015 hurricane season? Hurricane Bill flooded parts of Texas last week and then came our way as a Tropical Storm.  Those damaging winds and "T-storms" this weekend were the tail end of Bill.  So, I looked at the remainder of our 2015 Hurricane Season -- that began June 1st -- to see if we need to keep our eye on the sky in Westchester County. NOAA, or the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration is calling for a normal to below - average season for the U.S. -- Hooray!  Our typical hurricane season runs from early June through November 20th.  Remember that Sandy hit our area in early November 2012.   The height of hurricane season in the U.S. is from mid-August through late October.  Here's ...
