Peoria is a central Illinois city on the bluffs above the Illinois River, with a long history of heavy-equipment manufacturing, a regional medical center, Bradley University, and the University of Illinois College of Medicine Peoria. River flooding, tornadoes, and winter ice are its main data risks. When a device fails in Peoria, we recover it by mail.
In April 2013, the Illinois River reached a record crest at Peoria, flooding riverfront areas and low-lying neighborhoods. Heavy rain can still flood basements and businesses near the river. Central Illinois also sees severe storms and tornadoes, including the November 2013 tornado that devastated nearby Washington. Keep computers and drives off basement floors, use a UPS, and keep an off-site or cloud backup in case a home or office is damaged.
Peoria winters bring snow, bitter cold, and ice storms that bring down lines, and summers are hot and humid with frequent thunderstorms. Older homes on the bluffs and in the city's historic neighborhoods may have damp basements and older wiring. Run a dehumidifier where electronics are stored, use surge protection on older circuits, and let laptops warm up before powering them on after time in a cold car.
