This has been a public service announcement.

A day late and a dollar short, I'm afraid. My house was flooded a few years ago and we didn't have flood insurance. We were located in a Low-risk area until about a few months before the flood, then they redrew everything and included my neighborhood as a High-risk area. But we had never had any flood problems during hurricanes before, so my parents didn't bother getting the insurance...=\
