Year in and year out, the property-casualty industry provides consumers with the peace of mind that comes from knowing that insurers will be there to help them. However, hurricane season provides our industry with an extraordinary opportunity to highlight our commitment to the homeowners, business owners and communities that we serve as we help them rebuild after the wind blows.

This year, most forecasters have projected that the 2010 hurricane season could be very active. Expert prognosticators on average foresee about 15 named storms, between five and eight hurricanes, and anywhere from two to four of those hurricanes classified as major. The highly respected hurricane project at Colorado State University anticipates a 70 percent chance that at least one major hurricane will make landfall along the U.S. coast in 2010.
