Insured losses resulting from natural catastrophes in the U.S. and Europe totaled just over $280 million during September, says a new report. 

Reinsurance broker Aon Benfield's catastrophe modeler Impact Forecasting says in its September 2012 Global Catastrophe Recap that insurance payouts in the U.S. from September cat events amounted to $125 million.

The worst event in the United States was severe weather from a cold front that caused damage from the Central Plains to New England on the 7th and 8th. The storms produced tornadoes, damaging winds and hail. At least four people were killed, the report says.
