When is a storm considered a foreseen event by travel insurance?
Short Answer
A storm is typically considered foreseen once it is named.
More Detail
On many policies, a storm — whether it is a hurricane, tropical storm, blizzard or winter storm — is considered foreseen once it is named. However, storms can also be considered foreseen once they are forecast to impact your trip.
If you are buying a policy because you know a specific storm is going to affect your travel, it may be too late for you to buy a policy with coverage for that storm. We recommend contacting the provider before purchasing a policy if you are concerned about whether coverage is available.
