The Insurance Information Institute, a resource for consumers, media, and policymakers on insurance topics, recently posted updates on Florida’s tort reforms, hurricane season forecasts, and legal system abuse affecting insurance costs.
On April 8, 2026, the Institute stated: “Florida’s tort reforms are working: 18 new insurers, Citizens policies down 50%, and auto rates falling. But new risks are emerging. Hundreds of wildfires have burned since Jan. 1 amid the state’s worst drought in 25+ years. Dive deeper: https://t.co/KcaIN0h0Wz https://t.co/Sm4hKQqLRg”.
The following day, April 9, the organization shared information about the upcoming hurricane season: ” .@ColoradoStateU forecasts a below-average 2026 Atlantic #HurricaneSeason with 13 named storms, six hurricanes, and two major hurricanes.
