Hail damage costs billions and may keep rising
Original: Hail is a multibillion-dollar problem – and could get worse
Hail is being described as a multibillion-dollar problem in the United States, with severe storms damaging homes, vehicles and crops at growing cost to insurers and taxpayers. Reporting in High Country News examines why hailstorms cause so much damage and warns that losses could increase as development expands in hail-prone regions and storm patterns shift.
Why now: Rising insured losses from severe hailstorms are drawing fresh attention to a costly and under-discussed climate risk.
