I also heard that home insurers are telling homeowners they are on their own.  Isn't that something? 

  

@Lucky Charm

I’ve been poking around on Google.

Apparently there’s a difference between a ‘mudslide’ & ‘mudflow’.

Insurance companies consider mudslides too big of a risk 

to insure.  Mudflow might be covered under flood insurance.

They also said the difference between slide & flow is the amount

of water & objects being moved.

 

California Folks:  Is this true?  

 

Man that would/will be a shame if insurance doesn’t cover 

their former homes/belongings.

@sidsmomthank you for poking around!  You've made a great discovery. I had no idea there was a distinction between flow and slide.  Maybe someone has direct info on that.
