i ma trying to get an accurate count of the number of residential claims for north texas storms of march and april. heard 135,00 from ISO back in april but am looking for an updated number.
The "accurate count" you seek would be and is impossible to derive (short of having every single carrier in a particular market report their claims in arrears to some central reporting agency) so the ISO estimates are probably the best gauge around.
The exercise which Clayton was trying so futilely to conduct here on CADO would have been an excellent gauge for us to use as one more measuring tool to indicate employment trends, but as you will note from a review of that thread, there was very little interest from the audience in providing the essential data necessary to substantiate any clear and accurate statistical trending.
