With the start of the 2014 Atlantic hurricane season, the JNGI Mobile Catastrophe Response Service (MCRS) is prepared for all eventualities, says Andrea Gordon-Martin, Assistant General Manager for Operations.
Early forecasts by the Colorado State University and from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in the United States, report a below average season for the low pressure systems which develop into hurricanes. However, Mrs. Gordon-Martin points out that the prediction was similar in 2012 when Hurricane Sandy levelled parts of Eastern Jamaica.

JAMAICA'S Office of Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Management (ODPEM) wants legislation supporting the building code to be passed and applied, which the agency says is crucial in the country's preparation for earthquakes.
"Every structure and especially government infrastructure must be built to that code and that needs to be retro-fitted and I think that is the direction we need to focus," said Ronald Jackson, director general of the ODPEM.
