I do not see insurance companies lowering rates.
In the last 10 years the land and ocean temperatures on average have been increasing and the oceans rising due to that HEAT. The added heat is caused by heat reflecting from the upper atmosphere more strongly due to CO2 increases caused by man's activities including Automobile exhaust. Likely Florida and other countries will see more and stronger hurricanes. New Internal Combustion Engines are being purchased in large quantities worldwide - so, each year, the problem will get worse.
