Hurricane Harvey could cause $70 billion to $90 billion in economic losses from wind, storm surge and flood damage, most of it in the Houston metropolitan area, according to risk-modeling company RMS.

The majority of those losses will be uninsured, RMS said Wednesday in a statement. The final tally of damages could rise as the flooding continues, the company said.
