    Buy flood insurance and if it gets too expensive, it might make more sense to move. I live in an area where flood insurance just skyrocketed and I think people are still hoping prices will go down somehow but I don’t think it’ll happen.

    If you’re handy, maybe look into how to gut a house after a flood. Mold can do a lot of damage.

    I don’t know if you’re in an area where flooding could be a safety issue but always follow local warnings/official’s advice. Property can be replaced, people can’t.

    I think as humans we can engineer our way out of increasingly hostile weather but it takes an investment of time and money and our governments aren’t usually great at either.
