The GIC activated to Level 3 – Enhanced Monitoring on 10-Jul-2019 for Potential Tropical Cyclone 2 which would eventually become Hurricane Barry. On 15-July GIC stood-down and returned to Level 4 – Monitoring.

Following 5 days of monitoring for damage assessments, soliciting input from GIC insurer members, and coordinating with FEMA, NOAA, and other federal and state emergency management, this storm has not triggered thresholds established in the GIC Gray Sky Playbook for activation for imagery collection. The playbook calls for activation for imagery collection for hurricanes of Category 2 and greater or in special circumstances for Category 1.

Given low damage and utility for our insurer members, GIC did not collect imagery for Barry.

Thanks,
