Talking points

  1. Hurricanes can bring heavy rains, high winds and storm surges. These result in tides swelling, high water and big waves that can erode natural barriers, leaving coasts more vulnerable to future storms and flooding.

  2. Warmer air holds more water, making it easier for storms to carry more water inland from the oceans. Storms move slower, increasing the precipitation for a concentrated area.

  3. There are a variety of hidden risks that can put your house in danger of flooding, like new housing developments or changes in weather patterns. Flood insurance is a surefire way to protect your home, even when it doesn’t face the obvious risks for flooding.

  4. Most homeowners and renters insurance policies do not cover flood damage.
