Storm activity in the eastern U.S. last week spawned a variety of damaging weather from the Southeast to the Northeast, and likely caused over $100 million in insured losses in Mississippi alone.
Aon Benfield reports that an active weather pattern caused baseball-sized hail, strong winds that gusted up to 100 miles per hour and at least 482 reports of tornadoes in the Southeast, as well as over 15 inches of snow in some parts of the Northeast.
“The inclement weather was associated with a complex series of low-pressure areas and frontal boundaries which were found from northern New England to the Gulf Coast,” Aon Benfield says in a statement.
