Loss Figures for North Texas Storm Revised to $100M

Insured losses from the storm that spawned tornadoes and large hail over portions of the Dallas Fort Worth area on April 13, have been set at approximately $100 million, the Insurance Council of Texas reported.

Twenty thousand homes and nearly 30,000 automobiles were damaged by hail and high winds.

The original figure of $25 million was revised after initial reports quadrupled one week following the storm.

Mark Hanna, an ICT spokesman, said insurers currently are assessing the damage from a second round of storms that plowed through the state April 24.
