Wednesday, March 30th, 2005 — A Central Texas hailstorm has caused about $50 million to 60 million in damage, insurance officials say. The estimate from the storm could grow this week and local offices received about 900 claims for hail damage to cars and homes. The damage is the worst in the area since a March 25, 1993, hailstorm dropped baseball-size hail on northwest Austin, causing $125 million in damage.
