Mohave Desert Winds and Their Impact on Hesperia Homes?
8/27/2024 (Permalink)
Our local Hesperia/Apple Valley, Barstow/Twentynine Palms, and Victorville teams are trained and certified to restore wind damage. The Mohave Desert frequently experiences strong winds that pose significant challenges for homeowners in Hesperia. These desert winds, often exceeding 50 miles per hour, can cause extensive damage to properties, especially during the spring and early summer months when wind activity peaks.
The relentless winds can lead to various issues, from structural damage to homes to soil erosion around foundations. Roofs are particularly vulnerable, with shingles and tiles often dislodged or damaged. Windows and doors can also suffer, especially if not properly sealed or reinforced. Additionally, these winds can transform everyday items like patio furniture and garden tools into dangerous projectiles, causing further damage to homes and surrounding structures.
Residents should regularly inspect and maintain their homes to protect them. Reinforcing roofs, securing loose items, and installing wind-resistant windows and doors can significantly reduce the risk of damage. Planting windbreaks and using ground cover can help prevent soil erosion and stabilize the ground around homes.
Preparation is critical in a wind-prone area like Hesperia. By taking proactive measures and staying informed about weather conditions, homeowners can better protect their properties from the harsh effects of Mohave Desert winds.
