QUAD CITIES-- We could see an increased risk for spring flooding as several factors seem to be lining up. WQAD's Andrew Stuzke explains how homeowners can get a better idea of how to prepare, especially after record flooding last year.

The department hosted an informational open house on January 29 for Quad Citizens to learn their flooding risk and if flooding insurance is right for them.

Event organizers said there's a lot of confusion when it comes to what your insurance may or may not cover.
