Hail Claims Impact on Texas Home Insurance
Over the last 8 weeks, Texas has been struck by four major hail storms, three in the Dallas / Fort Worth area and one in San Antonio. As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, initial estimates for the two hail storms that struck north Texas were a combined $1.3 billion in damages to homes, vehicles, and businesses. The estimated total number of vehicles struck by hail in those two storms alone was 80,000. The storm that hit in early April should push the damage totals for all three north Texas storms close to $2 billion.
