By Natalie Todoroff, Mariah Posey Verified| Bankrate Verified The wildfires may be out, but that doesn’t mean Californians can rest easy. The January 2025 wildfires are on track to be the most expensive natural disaster in U.S. history — topping the damage done by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Already, the California FAIR Plan has run out of money and called on private home insurance companies and homeowners across the state for financial aid. The Los Angeles wildfires have, expectedly, resulted in an onslaught of home insurance claims.
By Shannon Martin Verified, Mariah Posey Verified| Bankrate Verified “It’s burned into my brain, I’ll never forget it,” says Lynn Boudreaux. “The storm hit around midnight, and it was loud. The wind was rattling the windows, it was just so loud. Then it sounded like there was a train nearby. Later, we found out that a little tornado touched down and tore off the second story of the house behind us.”The day before Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, Lynn was a 22-year-old single mom evacuating east to Tallahassee with her 4-year-old son.
