What affects fire damage around Covington

Warm, humid weather brings frequent thunderstorms and lightning, outdoor cooking is common most of the year and storm outages lead to generator use. Smoke from brush or wildland fires can reach parts of Louisiana in dry seasons.

• Portable generators and extension cords after storm outages create fire and carbon monoxide hazards.
• Humidity can speed mold growth when firefighting water is left in walls and floors.
• Thunderstorms and lightning can cause electrical and attic fires.

1. Safety first. Get everyone out, call 911 if the fire is still burning and wait for the fire department to clear the building.
2. Get the fire report. Ask the responding department for the incident number. In Covington that may be a city, county or district agency.
3. Call your insurer. Report the loss, ask what they need and keep a log of every call.
4. Document and protect. Photograph each room, avoid touching soot covered items and arrange board up if windows or the roof are open.
