The following is an interesting run down of the top 10 states at risk for natural disasters.

Disasters can happen at any time and anywhere. But some places experience more than their fair share of floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, winter storms and severe weather.

Where have these damaging events occurred most frequently and severely? Kiplinger.com worked with the Property Claim Services unit of Verisk Analytics, a leading source of insurance risk information, to identify the ten states that have suffered the biggest property losses from disasters over the past decade. If one of these disasters strikes where you live, make sure you have enough insurance coverage to protect your finances.

I'm in Illinois currently and ranking in the top 10. That's no surprise considering we're smack dab in the middle of Tornado Alley and have a high percentage of twisters and high end wind storms every year. :(
