There is no responsible one-number answer for every inflatable
A small bounce house, a tall water slide, and a long obstacle course do not present the same wind profile. The approved configuration, manufacturer instructions, anchoring method, surface, surrounding hazards, and actual gusts all matter.
Wow Inflatables uses the selected equipment and real event conditions to make the operating decision. An older blog number, a generic app reading, or another company’s policy should not replace that unit-specific decision.
Watch conditions—not only the forecast icon
Review the local forecast before setup and keep monitoring during the event. Gusts can change faster than a daily forecast summary suggests. Trees moving sharply, loose objects blowing, anchors shifting, fabric behaving unusually, darkening skies, thunder, or a weather alert require immediate attention.
- Name one adult weather contact before guests arrive.
- Know the substantial building or hard-topped vehicle guests will use for shelter.
- Keep guests away from the inflatable while the trained team evaluates or secures it.
- Do not restart simply because rain or wind appears to ease; follow the current company decision.
Thunder means the event needs a shelter plan
The National Weather Service says that if thunder can be heard, lightning is close enough to strike and people should move to a safe building or hard-topped vehicle. Tents, picnic shelters, open garages, and the inflatable are not lightning shelters.
For a large school, church, company, or community event, allow enough time to move the full crowd. Decide who stops activities, who directs guests, and how families will receive the all-clear.
Site conditions can make moderate weather unsafe
Soft or saturated ground, slopes, restricted anchoring, pavement requirements, nearby trees, fences, buildings, overhead lines, or a cramped layout can change whether a setup remains acceptable. Tell the team about underground irrigation, septic, utilities, and venue anchoring rules before delivery.
Never move, loosen, cover, or alter an anchor, blower, cord, or safety component. Stop use and call the team if anything about the installed equipment changes.
Review anchoring considerations for grass and hard surfaces. For a public site, also prepare the park permission and shelter plan.
What happens to the reservation?
Review the current weather and cancellation terms presented during secure checkout and in the agreement for your reservation. The customer-facing site does not replace that agreement or promise that every weather condition can be predicted before delivery.
Call 678-379-9691 when the forecast changes so the team can review the event date, location, equipment, and current conditions with you.
Use the local planning pages for Griffin, McDonough, and Perry when the weather plan changes the equipment or site choice.
