Georgia Estimates Insured Storm Loss at $50M

Georgia Insurance Commissioner Ralph Hudgens said violent weather that struck Georgia on June 13 caused an estimated $50 million in insured losses.

The storm caused two EF1 tornadoes in Cherokee and Cobb counties. More than 160,000 Georgia Power customers were left without service and several people were also injured by falling trees.

“That figure may rise when all claims are settled,” Hudgens said. “My staff will continue to make every effort to work with consumers and help them through this difficult time.”
