Mother of all hailstorms hits Mississippi producing widespread damage
Posted on March 21, 2013 by END TIME HEADLINES
Hundreds of claims are pouring in to insurance companies in Mississippi,
an early indication of the widespread damage left behind by a hail
storm that pounded the capital city and other areas. Authorities say
it’s too early to know exactly how many structures were damaged, but it
appears to be a significant amount in Jackson and its suburbs. Jim
Rowles, who works in claims for Farm Bureau Insurance, said his company
had received about 500 property claims and 921 automotive claims by 1
p.m. Tuesday. Hail as big as baseballs pounded some spots in Jackson
and its suburbs, and there were reports of even larger hailstones in a
few places. The storms that pushed across parts of Mississippi on Monday
left damage in 18 counties, though some of that was downed trees, said
Mississippi Emergency Management Agency spokesman Jeff Rent. One person
was treated for minor injuries and released from the University of
Mississippi Medical Center after being hit by hail, said spokesman Jack
Mazurak. News
