We know everyone is seeing the forecasts for this weekend. The amount of ice being projected is unprecedented, and a long amount of time without power, especially with extreme cold temperatures can create issues in your home. Here are a few tips that can save you from some serious issues during the expected winter storm:

If you lose power, drip your water pipes inside the house while the temperatures stay cold. Some of the costliest claims we see are caused by frozen/broken pipes. If you are going leave your house during the event, turn your water off where it enters your home while you are away.

Make sure any device you use to heat your home does not produce Carbon Monoxide. This is a good time to consider a carbon monoxide detector if you do not have one. Get one with a battery backup, so it will work with the power off. Also use caution with candles and fires to avoid burning your home down.

If your power goes out, limit the number of times you open your refrigerator and freezer. This will help hold the cold in for longer. Fill a cup with water and place it in your freezer, then when it freezes, place a coin on top of the ice. After the power comes back on, you can look at your cup, and the coin will show whether the freezer thawed or not.

Make sure you have batteries, flashlights and ways to light your home. Fill your car up with gas. You can use the chargers in your car to charge your small electronic devices if the power is out. Just do not sit in a running car to get warm!

Hopefully the forecast is wrong, but it is a good time to be prepared.

Be safe!

With the severe weather forecast for the next couple of days, a couple of reminders in the event you have a claim. We should be available by phone even if we don't have internet, but if for some reason we are not, here are some tips. Most companies can look up your policy by your name and address, but to expedite the process, having your policy number on hand is always helpful. Now would be a good time to put that in an easy to find spot if you haven't already.

All of our companies allow you to file a claim online if you have an online account, as well as through their apps. If you haven't signed up for these, now would be a good time to complete the online account or download the app.

If you have damage and need immediate assistance with mitigation, we recommend the following companies:

Southeast Restoration - 770-345-3500
Nivek Restoration - 678-454-3791

As always, thank you for trusting us with your insurance protection.

March Madness on the office television!

Our office building flooded during the rain Saturday evening/Sunday morning. Luckily, our office is just past the water line, so we didn't sustain any damage. (Thank goodness for old buildings with uneven floors!) However, the cleanup continues and will necessitate us closing for the remainder of the day today. As of right now, we anticipate reopening tomorrow morning. We will update if that changes.

As always, we are available by email and phone. Thank you for your patience!

If you are planning to visit us over the next several weeks, our North Street entrance will not be available. You also may want to wear your walking shoes! While this project only removes about a dozen parking spaces, the continuing work on the Jones Building has closed the lot between the building and Cannon Park. Parking is at a premium in Downtown Canton these days.

While I was walking at lunch today, a young girl who was probably 4 or 5 years old saw me walking toward her. She jumped off of her bike and ran into the grass. She quickly bent down, grabbed something and ran toward me. Holding up this little flower, she had a big smile on her face and said, "Here, this is for you!"

It was such a pleasant reminder of the actions of a pure heart. She didn't do it to be recognized by others or to receive anything in return, she just wanted to be nice. It was already a good day, and after thanking her, I walked on with a smile on my face, carrying my little flower along for the remainder of my walk. The George Strait song "I Saw God Today" came to mind, and my smile turned into a happy tear.

"I've been to church
I've read the Book
I know He's here
But I don't look
Near as often as I should
Yeah, I know I should

His fingerprints are everywhere
I just look down and stop and stare
Open my eyes and then I swear
I saw God today"

Thank you little lady for the sweet reminder of how to make the world a little better!
