Our Job is to Make Your Business Shine When Faced With Adversity

🌬️ Weather & Hazard Preparedness Division

☀️ Sunny Sam Enterprises LLC understands that preparing for local natural hazards requires more than generic templates or the assumption that "it will never happen here." The most effective preparation and mitigation efforts demand a deep understanding of the specific, local hazards that could impact your business, school, or campus.

Our goal is to collaborate with you to ensure you fully understand your risks, develop well-thought-out action plans tailored to your specific needs, and confirm that your staff knows how to respond quickly and accurately when hazardous weather threatens, ultimately minimizing loss and protecting lives.

Our company is an owner-operated firm led by a retired National Weather Service Warning Coordination Meteorologist with 35 years of experience in the weather enterprise. We are keenly aware of a critical gap in training and preparedness that is specifically focused on local natural hazards and impacts. We want to educate you and your staff on those hazards specific to the Midwest and your location, and taught be an expert that has seen and experienced it all personally.

Most currently available generic training materials contain the same instructional content, regardless of whether they are taught in California, Texas, Indiana, or Maine. While competent, the instructors for many of the training courses often lack the specialized knowledge of a meteorologist who fully understands the thermodynamics and kinematics of the atmosphere and has personally issued forecasts and warnings that saved lives. Generic training often misses the mark when it comes to regional and local hazards such as:

Lake-effect snow - Behaves differently, specific to the lake it develops on, wind direction, temperature and moisture

Midwest winter and ice storms - Wet snow or dry snow, impacts of each on roads, utilities, plowing, etc.

Different types of tornadoes and their unique impacts - Supercell impacts vs non-supercell tornado impacts

Severe thunderstorms and derechos - Minimal impacts or high end destruction, knowing the difference can save you money

Rapid shifts in seasonal conditions - Demands on utilities, heating, cooling and irrigation can change in less than a day

A deep understanding of "climate change" - Potential impact on your long term operations, learn the real science and truth

We provide the specialized expertise needed to address these crucial regional threats, ensuring your readiness is precise and effective.
