Local considerations in Mississippi
- Storm season brings wind, heavy rain and flooding risk, so board-up, roofing, drainage and generator readiness are planned before the season starts.
- Heat and humidity keep HVAC and refrigeration running hard for much of the year, which makes scheduled maintenance important.
- Work is scheduled around trading hours, building rules and landlord requirements at each site.
