The Rising Cost of Flood Damage: Is Your Home Prepared?

Flooding is no longer just a coastal issue—it’s affecting
communities across Connecticut, including areas previously
considered low-risk. This episode uncovers the growing importance
of flood insurance, especially as climate change intensifies
severe weather patterns. We discuss what the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP) offers, the rising premiums in
Connecticut, and why so many homeowners remain uninsured or
underinsured. Learn about the limitations of standard homeowners'
insurance, coverage options for renters and businesses, and
practical steps to protect your property. We also explore recent
legislative efforts aimed at increasing flood awareness and
improving community resilience. Whether you're a homeowner,
renter, or business owner, this episode is packed with actionable
advice to help you stay informed and prepared for flooding
events.
