A lot more shingles gone, several bare patches showing wood now on the roof.
Water inside from the storm surge, all the carpets are wet, water inside
from the bare patches on the roof, one ceiling came in on the SE corner of
the house.  My roofer tells me a minimum of 4 weeks to get to it, and Ivan

Top 10 Catastrophes

Fri Aug 13, 6:27 PM ET 

By The Associated Press 

Top 10 catastrophic events for insured property losses, according to
Insurance Services Office Inc. of Jersey City, N.J. 

   

The company defines a catastrophe as a single incident or series of related
incidents - man-made or natural - that cause insured property losses
totaling at least $25 million and affect a significant number of
policyholders and insurers. Catastrophes with equivalent amounts of damage
are listed with the same rank. 


The following numbers are inflation adjusted to 2002 dollars. 


1. Terrorist attack (New York, Virginia, Pennsylvania), September 2001 -
$20.7 billion. 


2. Hurricane Andrew, August 1992 - $19.9 billion. 


3. Northridge, Calif., earthquake, January 1994 - $15.2 billion. 


4. Hurricane Hugo, September 1989 - $6.1 billion. 


5. Hurricane Georges, September 1998 - $3.3 billion. 


6. Midwest, South tornadoes, May 2003 - $3.1 billion. 


7. Tropical Storm Allison, July 2001 - $2.5 billion. 


7. Hurricane Opal, October 1995 - $2.5 billion. 


9. Midwest, South tornadoes, April 2001 - $2.2 billion. 


9. Northeast winter storm, March 1993 - $2.2 billion.

Storm may cost $20 billion
Insurance adjustors assess Charley's damage to Florida By Joseph B. Treaster
The New York Times




Saturday, August 14, 2004 - Damage inflicted by Hurricane Charley as it
ripped across the midsection of Florida on Friday and early Saturday could
exceed $20 billion dollars, making it one of the most costly storms in
history, economic analysts said.

Karen Clark, the chief executive of AIR Worldwide, a Boston firm that
provides damage assessments for insurance companies, said some of the most
severe destruction came from surging seas sweeping across the barrier
islands and beaches of Florida's Gulf Coast in the vicinity of Punta Gorda
as the hurricane first made landfall.

But Clark and field representatives of insurance companies said Orlando,
with its glistening downtown office towers, Walt Disney World and other huge
theme parks, was also hit hard even though the storm's gusts were
diminishing as it moved through the center of the state and skimmed past
Daytona Beach on its way to the Atlantic Ocean.

"We have a swath of damage across the state," she said. "Lee and Charlotte
Counties on the west coast were the hardest hit. But the damage in Orlando
is also significant."

Hundreds of house trailers were destroyed in Port Charlotte and surrounding
Charlotte County, said Loretta Worters, a spokeswoman for the Insurance
Information Institute, who is monitoring developments from New York for her
trade group. She said government buildings in the county suffered heavy
damage and that there were reports Saturday morning that fires had broken
out in the ruins of some houses near the town of Arcadia in Desoto County.
She said that a hospital in Arcadia was badly damaged and that the Turner
Agri-Civic Center there, where concerts and sports events have been held,
was destroyed.

The hurricane weakened moving into the Carolinas, and Clark estimated that
it might cause several hundred million more in damages there and farther up
the coast. Hurricane Charley may be the second-most devastating storm in
modern times after Hurricane Andrew, which battered South Florida in 1992 at
a cost of more than $25 billion.

RMS, a California company that also assesses storm damage for insurance
companies, estimated late Friday that the cost of Hurricane Charley to
insurers would be about $5 billion.

A much smaller portion of the damage of Hurricane Charley will be covered by
insurance than with Hurricane Andrew, industry experts said, because
flooding, for which most people do not have coverage, h
