The National Emergency Management Association (NEMA) Annual Forum brought together leaders from across the country to share knowledge, strengthen partnerships, and advance the field of emergency management. Our Tidal Basin team was proud to participate as a Platinum Sponsor and exhibitor, contributing to the conversations that shape national preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation strategies. Thank you to NEMA and all of this year’s attendees for the opportunity to connect, collaborate, and exchange ideas on building more resilient communities. We look forward to continuing these important discussions and seeing everyone again at next year’s forum. 💠 Carlos J.

Late-season storms can be just as destructive as those that form during peak hurricane season. October 2024 was a clear reminder, producing four named storms, three of which made landfall. While Hurricane Leslie remained over open waters, Milton intensified rapidly in 48 hours from a tropical storm to a Category 5 hurricane, showing how quickly conditions can change. Hurricane Oscar’s slow movement over Cuba brought heavy rainfall that triggered landslides, cut off communities, and damaged transportation networks. Tropical Storm Nadine affected Belize, Guatemala, and several Mexican states, requiring coordinated response efforts across international borders. As we move through this year’s season, government agencies must prepare for storms that develop outside traditional peak months. Partner with Tidal Basin to strengthen your community’s disaster readiness and recovery.

One year ago today, Hurricane Milton carved its path through Florida, leaving behind $34.3 billion in damages and testing every aspect of disaster response. What made Milton especially difficult was its timing, as it hit areas still recovering from Hurricane Helene just weeks earlier. Peaking at a Category 5 hurricane, Milton made landfall as a Category 3, bringing up to 10 feet of storm surge, more than 20 inches of rainfall, and 45 reported tornadoes. Tidal Basin worked to help communities recover from this devastating storm and remains committed to assisting in any future challenges during the 2025 hurricane season. #HurricaneMilton #DisasterResilience #HurricanePreparedness

Diana Pagan-Rosado's career path was shaped by one of Puerto Rico's most challenging moments. When Hurricane Maria devastated the island, Diana discovered her legal expertise could bridge the gap between disaster response needs and government systems. After the storm, Diana helped fellow Puerto Ricans navigate recovery processes, drawing on her legal background and cultural awareness to strengthen community resilience. Explore Diana's Hispanic Heritage Month feature below to learn how her experience inspired her to take on a larger role in disaster management.
