Hurricane Sally was a Category 2 Hurricane that made landfall on September 16th, 2020. Sally caused damage to many homes and businesses in coastal Alabama and Florida. Of the over 17,000 FORTIFIED homes and 19 FORTIFIED Commercial™ structures in coastal Alabama, over 95% saw little to no damage during the storm.
Hurricane Sally proved that FORTIFIED standards are even more effective at scale thanks to the adoption of the Coastal Construction Code Supplement across over 70% of the area.
Before Hurricane Ida made landfall, FORTIFIED Multifamily™, and FORTIFIED Home properties were under construction in Louisiana. Lockport, LA, saw some of the worst of Hurricane Ida as the eye passed right over the city. These two apartment complexes are half a mile apart, but FORTIFIED Commercial™ changed how families living in the units on the right would recover.
