As the week goes on, we’re tracking a severe weather threat that could bring the risk of flooding to our area by the end of this week.
Please take a minute to review your auto insurance coverage to make sure you have the right protection for your vehicle—and for your wallet. Also, make sure you can access your flood insurance documents and review what they cover.
One important reminder: rising water from the ground is typically excluded under most homeowners insurance policies. Flood insurance also usually has a 30-day waiting period, so it may not cover this upcoming event—but it could protect you in the future.
Please stay alert, take precautions, and don’t wait until the storm is here to get prepared. sure you have access to your flood insurance documents as well. Rising water from the ground is excluded under home insurance policies. Flood policies also have a 30 day wait period so it may not protect you this time but may in the future.
