Severe weather is coming. Is your house ready?

The next storm won't wait.

Weather threats

What's headed for your house?

Pick the threat you face. Each guide shows the damage it does, the fixes that stop it, and exactly what to do when a warning goes out.

Why waiting costs more

  1. Shelves empty first

    Generators, water, batteries and weather radios are the first things to disappear once a storm hits the forecast.

  2. Coverage has a waiting period

    New NFIP flood policies usually take 30 days to start, and many insurers stop making changes once a storm threatens.

  3. Contractors book up

    Shutters, transfer switches and storm shelters need installers — and their calendars fill the moment the season starts.
