AAA recommends avoiding opening freezer or refrigerator doors to prevent food spoilage. If meat thaws, cook the meat on an outdoor grill to prevent it from spoiling, do not refreeze it. If the power is out for an extended time, AAA recommends eating food that will spoil quickly first.
If a tree falls on your home or vehicle insurance may cover removal of the tree and repairs due to damage. If a branch or tree damages your vehicle, you need to file a claim using your vehicle policy’s comprehensive coverage. Damage to a vehicle caused by heavy wind or fallen tree limbs is covered under the optional comprehensive portion of an auto insurance policy, AAA said.
If a tree in your yard falls onto your neighbor’s home, your neighbor’s homeowner’s policy would provide insurance coverage. The same applies if a neighbor’s tree falls onto your house.
