Hail damage costs billions and may worsen

Original: Hail is a multibillion-dollar problem – and could get worse

Hail is emerging as one of the costliest weather hazards in the United States, causing billions of dollars in damage each year to homes, cars, crops and infrastructure. Reporting from the High Country News argues that worsening storms and expanding development in hail-prone regions could push losses even higher, prompting debate about building standards, insurance costs and climate change.

Why now: Rising insurance costs and severe storms are making hail damage a growing concern for homeowners and policymakers.
