Wildfires
Over the last 10 years, wildfires have cost about $5.1 billion in losses, according to Verisk’s 2017 Wildfire Risk Analysis. California, Texas, Colorado, Arizona and Idaho are among the top states prone to wildfires. The National Interagency Fire Center notes that 8.8 million acres were burned in the U.S. in 2018, which is down from 10 million in 2017.

Earthquakes
The Insurance Information Institute notes that the 1994 earthquake in Northridge, California was the costliest on record. The event caused $15.3 billion in insured damages and resulted in 61 fatalities. While devastating earthquakes may not occur as often as hurricanes or tornadoes, preparation is still critical since they strike with little to no warning.
Hurricanes and tornadoes
According to the National Hurricane Center, Hurricanes Harvey (2017) and Katrina (2005) are the two costliest tropical cyclones on record. Both storms caused $125 billion in damage to areas in Texas, Louisiana, Southeast Florida, Louisiana and Mississippi primarily from catastrophic flooding. NOAA reports that the United States has the most tornadoes in the world with an average of 1,000 touching down each year. Unlike hurricanes, tornadoes usually occur with little to no warning.
