Are you a Wisconsin native? If so, then you’ve probably lived through your fair share of natural disasters. They have the potential to be swift, but cause a large amount of damage.

Our local team of nearby Green Bay public insurance adjusters is here to help. In this blog, we’re going to cover some of the natural disasters that have affected the state and what they mean for you, in our option.
Flooding
Wisconsin is no stranger to floods. Even earlier this year, parts of the state were covered in water. Floods can cause great damage up front, as well as leave behind residual damage that may take a long time to clean up. Water damage can damage your home’s or office’s integrity by seeping into the foundation and rotting away vital supports. One storm can damage hundreds of buildings, leaving people displaced and out of work. Flash flooding is also a major concern. This type of flood can pop up with little to no warning and do some serious damage. If you live close to a body of water, you probably take routine precautions when you are warned about heavy rainfall. But, it is impossible to be prepared for everything Mother Nature has to throw at you. So, when you need a helping hand, look to Norcia Insurance Consultants.
Blizzards
For a snowstorm to officially be categorized as a blizzard, it has to have strong, sustained winds above 56 mph. They cause reduced visibility, making driving difficult and dangerous. Some blizzards have significant icefall and others produce thunder. A blizzard can have a big effect on your home and your business. They are notorious for substantial snow build ups, causing roofs to collapse. Over the past 10 years, there have been 10 notable blizzards across the state of Wisconsin. Recent blizzards have caused road closures and power outages. Though Green Bay rarely sees more than two blizzards a year, they can have a big impact on the city whey they come through. Due to low temperatures and the potential for further damage, it is important to get blizzard damage repaired as soon as possible.
