It looks like the Island's insurance companies may have got off lighter than expected with last night's storm.

Although over 50 incidents of trees falling and floods occuring were reported, only a small number of insurance claims have been submitted so far.

Tower Insurance on Victoria St in Douglas had been expecting a large number of claims today, but so far things have been quiet.
