Floods In Several Areas Of Oregon: Rain falls in Oregon throughout the winter, often in heavy amounts. This year, like all others, the Division of Financial Regulation (DFR) wants to remind everyone to be prepared.
Increased Rainfall Might Cause Floods In Several Areas Of Oregon
Rain is expected to continue this weekend and into next week, and because flooding has already begun in the Pacific Northwest, there are precautions you can take.
The majority of Oregon residents who have flood insurance are protected by the National Flood Insurance Program. Private flood insurance can also be obtained through the agency that handles your insurance policies. Flood damage is typically excluded from standard homeowner’s or renter’s insurance policies. In the event that your current insurer does not provide flood coverage, you have the option of shopping around for other insurance providers that do.
DFR’s website provides access to a variety of flood insurance resources. It is critical to plan ahead of time for any potential flooding. Creating a financial first-aid kit and inventory is one way to achieve this goal. This can be achieved by:
Keep your checking and savings account numbers in a safe place where you can easily access them. Keeping an inventory of your goods is the practice of photographing or videotaping your possessions and making a written list of what you own.
Winter in Oregon brings rain – and lots of it. This year is no different and the Division of Financial Regulation (DFR) reminds people to be prepared. https://t.co/ZYkDDnZsAV
