Some very bad news . . . less than 15% of all the homes damaged by the flooding caused by hurricane Florence have Flood Insurance. Regular Home Owners Insurance does not cover damage to home/property caused by flooding. Flood insurance is sold by the government: (and managed by FEMA) National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). This issue also affects people who rent as far as their belongings.
The storm has been blamed for 17 deaths, 11 of them in North Carolina.
