Winter Storm Home Documentation — West Virginia
West Virginia blizzards, ice storms, and heavy snow can damage roofs, cause ice dams, and cut power for days. A pre-season record helps prove storm damage versus gradual wear when adjusters review claims.
Preparation checklist for West Virginia
- ✓ Photograph roof, gutters, and attic spaces before the first major winter storm.
- ✓ Document generators, space heaters, and sump backup equipment with serial numbers.
- ✓ Capture outdoor structures, fences, and vehicles that ice and wind can damage.
- ✓ Note where critical papers live for multi-day outage evacuation planning.
- ✓ Keep an off-site vault backup before winter — see the Vault Backup guide.
