THE STORM DOESN’T HAVE TO HIT YOUR HOME FOR YOUR HOME TO BE AT RISK.

As communities across Florida’s Panhandle begin assessing the damage from Hurricane Isaias, homeowners right here in the Tampa Bay area are also dealing with rising water and the possibility of repeated flooding.

At Vanguard Property Intelligence, our prayers are with every family affected by this storm and with our neighbors facing the uncertainty of rising floodwaters. We pray for their safety, strength, and recovery.

These events serve as an important reminder for all Florida homeowners.

Understanding your flood risk is just as important as preparing for the next hurricane.

Many homeowners have heard the term “100-year flood,” but that does not mean flooding can only happen once every 100 years.

A property located within the 1%-annual-chance floodplain has approximately a 26% chance of experiencing at least one flood of that magnitude or greater over a 30-year period.

And just because your home flooded two years ago doesn’t mean it cannot happen again tomorrow.

There is another important question every homeowner should consider:

If your home suffered damage tomorrow, could you demonstrate what its condition was today?

We routinely prepare for hurricanes by stocking supplies, securing our homes, and reviewing evacuation plans. But documenting the condition of our property and important belongings deserves a place in that preparation.

At Vanguard Property Intelligence, we offer Baseline Condition Reports that provide organized photographic documentation of your home’s existing condition and important contents before a potential loss.

These reports are not insurance policies, home inspections, or guarantees of claim payment. They are simply a way to establish a record of your property’s condition before something happens.

Preparation is an act of responsible stewardship.

Our mission is to help property owners understand the importance of documentation and take practical steps to prepare for the unexpected.

To our Florida neighbors: Stay safe, stay informed, and look after one another.

Know Your Risk. Document Your Property. Prepare Before the Loss.

8 AM SAT | The tropical update this morning shows two areas we're watching. The first is what was once Tropical Storm Dolly that will move into the Bahamas by the end of the week. It could restrengthen back into a tropical system by then. The area in the Gulf is probably a little concerning to you this morning, but it will be moving WEST and not impact our area. I'll post futurecast showing that in a minute. Chances are low it will be much more than a rainmaker out west.

We are proud to support the Clearwater Composite Squadron, Civil Air Patrol, and the men and women who give their time in service to our community.

Today, Squadron members are participating in the Discovery Academy of Science STEM Extravaganza, spending their Saturday engaging with students and families and sharing their enthusiasm for aviation, aerospace, leadership, and STEM.

Civil Air Patrol is often associated with emergency services and disaster response. When hurricanes and other emergencies affect our communities, these volunteers train to answer the call.

But their service does not begin when a hurricane makes landfall.

It also happens on days like today.

It happens when cadets are mentored, when young people are introduced to aviation and STEM, when future leaders are developed, and when volunteers simply show up to support their community.

A special thank you to Dr. Lori Beth Bradner, STEM Coordinator at Discovery Academy of Science, for bringing students, families, educators, and community partners together for today’s STEM Extravaganza.

At Vanguard Property Intelligence, we believe strong and resilient communities are built before disaster ever strikes—through preparation, education, leadership, and service.

We are proud to support the Clearwater Composite Squadron and Civil Air Patrol—not only for the work they do when our communities need help, but for the work they do every week to make those communities stronger.

The big change in Advisory 12 for Bertha is a watch and warning adjustment. The Tropical Storm Warning that had been in place east of the Okaloosa/Walton County Line in Florida has been dropped, as Bertha has moved past that area.

The storm itself hasn't changed much. Winds are still holding at 50 mph, pressure remains at 998 mb, and Bertha is crawling westward at just 5 mph, down slightly from 6 mph in the last advisory. The center is now about 50 miles northeast of the mouth of the Mississippi River.

A Tropical Storm Warning remains in effect from the Okaloosa/Walton County Line westward to Morgan City, Louisiana, including metro New Orleans and Lake Pontchartrain. A Tropical Storm Watch continues west of Morgan City to Cameron, Louisiana, and Lake Maurepas. Gradual weakening is expected as Bertha continues hugging the northern Gulf Coast over the next couple of days. Stay with us for the next advisory.

Get your condition report before something happens and have a Public Adjuster on standby. The last thing you want to think about while struggling through the aftermath is the paperwork and the phone calls of filing a claim.

Myth #1 - "The insurance company's adjuster is my adjuster."

Reality - The insurance company's adjuster represents the insurance company.

A licensed public adjuster represents you, the policyholder.
