$32 million doesn't sound like all that much across the whole US.

Hailstorms.
(Note the statistic cited a dollar amount for damage to homes — so this would not count damage to cars, crops, or livestock)

Structure fires caused by improper/unsafe use of fireworks.

No, I didn't look it up; but it's that time of year when the tents and trailers show up in parking lots and roadside corners all across our state (Wisconsin) selling anything from ground-based cones that shoot showers of sparks to skyrockets that would look at home in a professional pyrotechnic display (and just about everything else in between).  One of our local news stations yesterday ran a two-minute article about them and mentioned the statistic.
