Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Global catastrophe recap : May 2017

Publication: [Londres] : AON Benfield, 2017Physical description: 13 p.Notes: Sumario: Several major outbreaks of severe weather once again swept across central and eastern sections of the United States during the month of May. The widespread intense nature of the storms caused extensive damage resulting from large hail, straight-line winds, tornadoes and isolated flash flooding. The most prolific event occurred in the greater Denver, Colorado metro region, where up to softball-sized hail led to insurance payouts of more than USD1.4 billion in the state alone. Elsewhere, significant damage from severe storms including multiple extended linear thunderstorm complexes with damaging winds and large hail was cited in parts of the Plains, Midwest, Southeast, and the Mid-Atlantic.Ámbito geográfico: InternacionalMateria / lugar / evento: Catástrofes naturales Seguro de riesgos extraordinarios Costes humanos Costes económicos Otros autores: Aon Benfield
