Billion dollar disasters increasing
According to the Office of Coastal Management, the U.S. has an average of 18 weather and climate disasters annually.
In 2023, there were 28 weather and climate disasters with losses exceeding $1 billion. The combined total cost of these 2023 disasters was $93.1 billion. I do not see insurance companies lowering rates. |

NOAA predictions are scary. Not only prepare for the storms but also be prepared for higher insurance costs.

Weather modelling has advanced more in the past 5 years than the previous 25. AI should accelerate that even more. Predicting weather is no longer "guessing" based on tea leaves and historical data.

As someone who has lived in Lake County( not the villages) my entire life, I can say with 100% certainty that everything is worse now than it was in my lifetime.

I’m laughing because even with a half dozen or more weather models and now AI ones, we still have to wait to see what actually happened.

No Hurricanes Last Year
Having zero hurricanes last year to several this year would certainly be a jump. Hurricanes come and go, we had several forecasted last year but none came even close. I don’t think the natural warming of the earth is doing anyone any favors, but it is a natural turn we must all endure. Some who chose to locate on the beach will endure more than those who chose to live on a mountain top.
