As climate change unfolds, hurricanes give a high-profile glimpse into the potential effects of a warming world.

The Arctic amplification has been warming the north pole more than twice the global average, contributing to extreme weather farther south.

Verisk’s Climate Change Projections help organizations investigate how loss metrics such as average annual losses (AALs) and return period may change in the future.

Learn how climate change may affect hurricane risk in the United States, specifically damage to residential and commercial properties.

For the second time in the last two years, hurricane precipitation in the U.S. was exacerbated by incredibly slow movement as Florence impinged on the Carolina coastline.

Scientific research on the influence of climate change on hurricane activity has focused on the relationship between warm Atlantic Ocean conditions and tropical activity.

The 2016 Atlantic hurricane season began early, ended late, and was the most active and costliest since 2012.
