Anywhere it can rain, it can flood.

This is not a plug from a particular company to sell flood insurance policies. It is a regional outreach campaign spearheaded by the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission to encourage area residents to purchase flood insurance to protect themselves as our flood risks continue to grow.

Why do you need flood insurance?

Sure, many homes and families in Hampton Roads have yet to experience flooding. If you haven’t had water where it’s not supposed to be, you’ve been lucky. But times, as they say, are a’changin. And the facts are the facts.

FACT Floods are the most common natural hazards.

And we’re not alone – 90 percent of all natural disasters in the U.S. involve some type of flooding. But not every flood is catastrophic. Smaller, more frequent flooding degrades infrastructure and can damage roads and building foundations over time. Communities suffer school closures, traffic interruptions, and continuing cost and inconvenience due to this “nuisance flooding.” Degraded sewer infrastructure results in heightened public health risks. And on it goes…

FACT Anywhere it can rain, it can flood. Period.

High-risk areas, including parts of Hampton Roads, have a one-in-four chance of experiencing a flood over the life of a 30-year mortgage. Over the past 70 years, heavy rainfall events have become more intense and frequent in our area and will only continue to increase. Based on previous records, it is also likely that water levels will be higher than average daily high tide when a rainfall event occurs.

FACT Homeowners and renters insurance does NOT cover flood damage.

Fifty-six percent of homeowners with homeowners insurance believe their policy covers flood insurance. If you are unsure, check with your agent.
