#HurricaneReady
- Before the severe weather arrives, close your interior doors. Closing your doors can reduce pressure on your roof by up to 30% giving it a better chance of staying intact during high winds.
- Before severe storms arrive, gather up loose items outside that could become flying debris.
- Be sure to have at least 3 ways to receive severe weather alerts, including an option that can be heard through a “Do Not Disturb” setting and options that can be used without electricity and wireless service.
- Documenting your belongings is easier before a storm. If you have a loss due to a hurricane, you’ll have to itemize your losses for your insurance company. Create a detailed list or video of your belongings and store it somewhere safely offsite.
