Navigation Insurance Information Institute: ‘Lightning loss claim count is highest in Florida’
Florida had the highest number of lightning loss claims in the U.S. last year, according to new data.
The Insurance Information Institute (III) found that more than $950 million in U.S. homeowners insurance claims caused by lightning were paid out in 2022 to 62,000-plus policyholders.
“While Florida has the highest claim count, the average claim cost is much lower than other states,” said Scott Holeman, a spokesperson with the III.
