@nicobruneau.bsky.social and I have been scratching our heads with #hurricane Andrew for a while now, and whichever way we look at it, it always seems like a very unlucky occurence. Curious to hear what the industry thinks about likely return period ?

It's always fascinating to see how sparse our historical records of Major #Hurricane US landfalls are ! This is why we need stochastic event sets to fill these gaps, and get a better picture of the risk ( #NaturalDisaster #climaterisk ).

Conditioning #hurricane parameter distributions to climate state is super important… otherwise we get stuck with backward looking static views of risk

Excited to see Nico posting his analysis on here, he consistently produces awesome #hurricane risk graphics:

Hurricane seasonal risk projection – before and after: Back in May, our team used Reask #TropicalCyclone model (see links in comments) to highlight projected regions of increased seasonal #hurricanerisk . 6 months later, we can overlay observed activity on top of the our pre-season "heat maps":
