michigan winter

Rose White, MLive: "Unseasonably warm weather, little snowfall and muddy trails have hollowed out the winter tourism industry across the Upper Peninsula. This crisis has devastated the small communities that rely on a thick blanket of snow to keep the economy humming. Although visitor numbers peak in summer, winter plays a vital role in tiding businesses over between shoulder seasons."

Note: In the time between when we recorded this interview with Jeff and when we published the episode, Jeff left ERSI for another opportunity.  We have published this episode with his permission to explain the work that ERSI does.

Jeff Selik from Emergency Response Services Inc (ERSI), covering southeast Michigan to talk about the havoc that Michigan can wreak on homes - from water and fire damage to ice dams, downed trees, lost power, and more.

Jeff tells us about some really important do's (such as a monitoring system for your sump), and don'ts (like why you should not run down and grab all your stuff off the floor when the basement starts to flood).

We also talk a little bit about the insurance claims process, and what to do when the unthinkable happens.
