Many people believe that by draining their swimming pool it will not overflow and then cause flooding in their yard. THIS IS INCORRECT! In-Ground Pools are very vulnerable to the excess water that the ground may be holding causing your pool to "float" or "pop" out of the ground. When water is in your pool the weight of the water helps to keep the excess ground water away from your pool.
A total of nine named storms, five hurricanes and one major hurricane are expected this season, according to the forecast prepared by The Weather Channel Professional Division.
