Let's check out the definition of flood from our dear ole friends at Mirriam/Webster:

Main Entry: 1flood
Pronunciation: 'fl&d
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Old English flOd; akin to Old High German fluot flood, Old English flOwan to flow

1 a : a rising and overflowing of a body of water especially onto normally dry land; also : a condition of overflowing b capitalized : a flood described in the Bible as covering the earth in the time of Noah

2 : the flowing in of the tide

3 : an overwhelming quantity or volume; also : a state of abundant flow or volume -- often used in the phrase in full flood

Now... unless I'm incorrect... the flowing in of the tide... and a rising and overflowing of a body of water especially onto normally dry land means... that FLOOD is not covered under these policies

Right or wrong if you have an exclusion in an insurance contract - it is not up to some politician to make nice for re-election

So sorry for those folks that didn't have "FLOOD" coverage - maybe some E&O carriers out there should be scratching their heads on their insurance professionals that didn't sell the coverage in the first place - or - get a signed statement that they were offered the coverage and they refused to purchase it -
