The Civil Air Patrol Program Hosts Open House through July Article Provided By: Cheryl Vagnozzi With the Atlantic hurricane season running June 1 to November 30, North Carolina Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey urges families to prepare now for hurricane season and the potential of extreme weather. "Your family should prepare now for possible extreme weather in the coming months," said Commissioner Causey. "Not only should you have an emergency plan in place, but one of your top priorities should be to make sure you have the appropriate insurance coverage for dangerous storms and fl ooding that could cause serious damage to your home or your property." Preparation before a storm is key. Residents should take inventory and document what they own. This will help insurance companies examine potential losses and assure proper coverage. In addition, individuals and families should have a storm-readiness plan in place. Families should discuss the plan so everyone knows how to respond once a storm hits. Residents should also be aware of the following: • Most homeowners' and renters' insurance policies do not cover damage from fl oods, although most mobile homeowners' and comprehensive auto policies do. • A landlord's insurance policy likely won't cover damage to a renter's personal property. • The National Flood Insurance Program takes 30 days to take effect. Waiting to take out a fl ood policy once a storm or hurricane is in motion will be too late. • Just because there's no longer a mortgage on a home does not nullify the need for homeowners' insurance. Since it takes 30 days for a fl ood policy to take effect, now is the time to contact your agent to see if you have the proper coverage. Commissioner Causey has approved a statewide private fl ood insurance program that participating companies can offer to residents living anywhere in the state. The program is separate from the National Flood Insurance Program. Commissioner Causey has set up free fl ood insurance conferences across the state to educate the public on the need for fl ood insurance. Insurance agents, real estate agents, adjusters, engineers and architects can receive continuing education credits by attending one of these conferences. For more information, contact the N.C. Department of Insurance by calling 1-855- 408-1212. Article Provided By: ncdoi NC Insurance Commissioner urges hurricane readiness Carolina Carolina CLASSIFIEDS .com Your Link to Local Classifi eds!
