More than 5,000 claims have been filed stemming from the freak early fall storm that dumped up to two feet of snow on the Buffalo area late last week.

The total so far includes 3,300 claims for just New York Central Mutual, which has about one-third of the market share of the Buffalo area, according to spokeswoman Joyce Talbott.

“Most of the claims have come from trees falling on houses and flooded basements,” she said.
