Georgia Cold Spell Leads to $75M in Claims
State officials say Georgians filed claims for an estimated $75 million in insured losses after temperatures in the region dropped well below freezing.
Georgia Insurance Commissioner Ralph Hudgens said in a statement that the figure could rise as additional claims are filed. Hudgens said damage to property after last week’s sub-freezing temperatures was particularly extensive in northern Georgia.
