No matter where you live, tornadoes can and do happen. You should prepare yourself ahead of time.
Don’t wait until disaster happens to look at your current homeowner’s policy. Mark a date every year on the calendar to remind yourself to review your insurance and contact your agent to make sure you are adequately covered in the event of a tornado or any other natural disaster.
Tree Maintenance: Even one weak or diseased tree can knock out power to your home or even your entire neighborhood. Contact a professional to look at your current yard and trees to give you an accurate assessment of your trees and where you may need to take some action.
Be sure you know the difference between a tornado watch and warning. Also be aware of your local area’s monthly testing for these. A good idea is to have a weather radio or a battery operated radio in your home in case there is a power outage so you can stay informed of new information and updates in your area.
Take an inventory of your belongings as well as pictures of these valuables in your home. A good plan is to update this list and these pictures when you go over your homeowner’s policy each year with you insurance agent.
