Stronger storms fueled by climate change will penetrate deeper into the United States and threaten parts of the country unaccustomed to high-speed winds, according to a new analysis of the country's vulnerability to tropical cyclones.
The report on worsening winds and their projected financial impacts was released Monday by First Street Foundation, a nonprofit research group based in Brooklyn, New York.
Researchers found that more intense storms brought on by climate change would expose millions more properties to wind damage in the next 30 years, particularly as tropical cyclone winds penetrate farther inland and as storms migrate poleward up the East Coast.
Scientists have said that while climate change is not expected to boost the number of hurricanes that strike each year, it will intensify the storms that do form.
The report used historic observations of hurricane formation, strength and landfall rates, and incorporated how these factors are affected by changes to sea surface temperatures, sea levels and atmospheric temperatures in a warming climate. The group's peer-reviewed model included 50,000 synthetic storm tracks that were used to gauge how wind direction and speeds would be altered in various future climate scenarios.
The new wind model adds to First Street's collection of risk assessments, which include risks of flood, fire and heat to properties in the contiguous United States.

Why is it illegal to yell, “Fire” in a movie theater but legal to try to scare millions over something that will happen naturally? This has already happened at times. If this prediction does not bear fruit will we be able to take all these peoples earthly possessions and jail them for 20 years? These cult members have got take some responsibility and have some stake in the game.
Reflecting sunlight to cool the Earth must be studied before climate change gets much worse, urges group of 60 scientistsThat's even larger than the 50 ex-spooks who said Hunter's laptop was "Russian disinformation," so you know it's trustworthy.
Wisconsin is overdue for a Cat 5 hurricane.
Weather “experts” sound an awful lot like health “experts” to me.. First link is pre-season.. second is post-season 2022

Anything COULD happen.
Hurricanes COULD literally rain cats and dogs.
Hurricanes COULD reverse their rotations in the northern and southern hemispheres.
"Scientists" and "journalists" touting this insanity COULD be crackpots.
Oh wait, the last one COULD be true!
Don’t forget the scary atmospheric river.
Pull this article out in 30 years (if we’re still alive). It will hold up just about as well as the “imminent Ice Age” articles from when I was a kid.
But the horndog poodle is just gross.
So...climate change is so dangerous it is going to change physics - and allow strong hurricanes to move further inland by sucking energy out of the dirt? :)
Fantasy and fabricated out of thin air. There is zero, zilch, nil, empty set of true science behind this.
Well, they have gone from the gulf coast to the artic circle in the past, going coast to coast is the only thing longer...I would like to see that
Dont forget about the polar vortex and the atmosphereic rivers.

“Stronger storms fueled by climate change will penetrate deeper into the United States and threaten parts of the country unaccustomed to high-speed winds, according to a new analysis of the country’s vulnerability to tropical cyclones.”
If it’s research, show us the data.
“ Wisconsin is overdue for a Cat 5 hurricane.”
Yes. I can see how, after rising sea levels move the Gulf Coast to St. Louis, Iowa will be devastated by repeated hurricanes. Buy corn and soybean futures now!
The trail of trash from border area not amused.
Anybody still using Comcast services should terminate them immediately.
I rather doubt that South Dakota will be at risk for hurricanes …tornadoes and an occasional derecho, but hurricanes no.
Does their analysis include destruction by looters??
