Insurance policies aren't typically bought 100 years into the future. Often, rates change from year to year.

Also, a 100-year flood is a misnomer. It is a flood that has a 1% chance of happening in the current year. It does not attempt to assess what the probability of a flood will be in 50 or 100 years.
