Stormy Weather: Buckeye style

Got this in email:

"Due to the severe weather throughout Ohio on June 29, 2012, the Ohio Department of Insurance has issued a notice requesting that insurance companies give affected subscribers additional time to pay their insurance premiums."

We had some rip-roaring weather hear the end of last month; lots of folks lost power for days, even weeks. The "request" is really a bit more than "pretty please," though:
"The bulletin, 2012-02, states that insurance companies are to give those who have been directly impacted by the storms 60 days from the date the premium was due to pay their premiums, interest free ... This request to insurers derives from the Federal Emergency Declaration for the state"
Still, it's nice that those seriously affected by the storms and subsequent power loss get a little breathing room.
