The Hail Storm left some lasting damage 2012-05-05 - KY 61 South, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. The reconstruction after the March 2, 2012 hailstorm left lasting damage. Most homeowners have settled with insurance companies, but Junior and Connie Stotts are still negotiating the damage on their home. Junior says the offer from the insurance company is only one-half enough. Quick insurance settlements in most areas of the storm's path have fueled boom times for repair services, and, to an extent, boosted the local economy.
