Extreme Weather: Hurricane Florence – Important Information
Restrictions due to Severe Weather
Extreme weather warnings can cause restrictions on insurance activities. When there is an extreme weather warning for a county, our companies require that we cease certain activities in that area.
These restrictions are as follows:
New Business
We cannot write any full coverage auto policies or any homeowners policies
Reinstatements
We will not be able to reinstate any policy
Endorsements
If you currently do not have a full coverage vehicle, we cannot add a full coverage vehicle or change your policy to full coverage
Once the storm restrictions have passed, we will be able to continue to do those listed activities.
What does this mean for you?
If your policy is up for renewal, currently cancelled, or due to cancel this week or over the weekend you will need to make your payment before the Severe Weather Warnings begin. These warnings will likely begin Tuesday night, but are subject to change due to the unpredictable nature of these extreme storms.

Hurricane Florence
Hurricane Florence has been rapidly strengthening as it continues to approach North Carolina. According to current projections from NOAA, Florence looks like it will begin affecting our area Wednesday Afternoon.
Hurricane Preparedness
If you have homeowner’s or renter’s insurance, we strongly recommend taking a photo or video or every room in your house and emailing it to yourself. These photos can be critical in ensuring your claims process goes quickly and and efficiently.
