After arriving at your home, take stock of the damage. Walk through your property to identify any water damage, structural issues, or other potential hazards.
Notify your local authorities and insurance companies as soon as possible. They can provide guidance on next steps and help with the insurance process.
If you're unsure about the safety of your home, don't delay. Consider evacuating to a safe location until the waters have receded or a professional assessors determines it's safe to return.
