THIS IS A TECHNICAL ALERT FOR OXEBRIDGE.COM VISITORS AND USERS.
DeepBlueHosting has alerted Oxebridge that its server farms are in the path of Hurricane Irene. While every precaution has been taken to ensure uninterrupted service, there is the small possibility that the Oxebridge.com website, and email servers, may be temporarily affected.
Here is the notice from DeepBlueHosting:
As you may know, Hurricane Irene, the first Hurricane to threaten the North East in quite a few years, is currently projected to produce 100mph winds at our Clifton (NJ) facility at some point this weekend. Irene has the potential to be a serious and multi-hazard threat for the major metropolitan areas of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast. This hurricane has the potential to produce flooding rains, high winds, downed trees (on houses, cars, power lines) and widespread power outages.
We have taken all of the necessary precautions to prepare for this and any disaster. The generators have been tested and fuel levels have been verified. Backup fuel has been secured and moved to a safe site, close to our location, in the event of extended power interruption. Arrangements have been made to make sure extra staff are available on site and we have additional staff local to the facility on standby if needed. We have also verified all outdoor equipment is secure and the roof is free of any debris that could potentially get picked up by the wind.
Similar precautions have been taken in Miami (FL), Secaucus (NJ) and New York City (NY). We are confident in our preparations and our ability to provide you the outstanding service you have come to expect from us, even in the event of a major natural disaster.
Website visitors may see a brief, and temporary, shutdown of the site. Email to and from oxebridge.com accounts may be affected.
