Summer storm season in mn
IS YOUR HOME READY FOR SUMMER STORM SEASON?
From downed trees to power outages, Minnesota summer storms can bring the unexpected. Here’s how to protect your home before the skies open up.
…………………………………………………………………………………….
Let’s start with the outside of your home:
Trim tree branches near your roof
and power lines.
Clear gutters and downspouts to avoid water backing up.
Secure patio furniture, grills, and garden decor that could blow away.
☑️ Bonus tip: Always keep your sump pump in working order—especially if you have a basement.
…………………………………………………………………………………….
Don’t forget to storm-proof the inside, too:
Create an emergency kit with flashlights, batteries, water, snacks, first aid, and a phone charger.
Back up important documents digitally.
Know where your circuit breaker is—and label it!
☑️ If you lose power, you’ll want to be ready, not scrambling in the dark.
…………………………………………………………………………………….
Check your insurance coverage BEFORE a storm hits:
Review your homeowner’s insurance for wind, hail, and flood coverage.
Take photos of your home and valuables now—just in case.
