My concern is damage to the house forcing me to stay back.
First and foremost, I hope you avoid any damage and are safe. We are thinking about ya’ll.
My parents in Lake Charles went through this with their house last year. The house has some fixable roof damage and siding which I tarped and patched. Power was out for 5 weeks so staying there past a few days wasn’t realistic. Basically after a few days of fixing and prep, it was time for them to relocate.
The issue was getting an insurance adjuster out there. Their insurance company took 3 weeks to send an adjuster. Depending on your insurance company, you may get an adjuster soon (few days after) or it may take a while. We also had some looters/scammers come by pretending to know my dad and saying my dad asked him to “relocate” his boat. Asking him a few confirmation questions while carrying a shotgun remedied that situation.
I only bring this up because it was something I wasn’t prepared for. In retrospect, I should have been. If your house does have damage, once you know when the adjuster is coming, you’ll know about the game. Having some good neighbors to keep an eye on things helps too.
Good luck and hoping for the best for you.
