Remember Hurricane Harvey? Climate change made that storm 3.5 times more likely. Helene follows the same pattern—intensified rainfall, catastrophic damage. We need to understand the scale of these risks and plan for the future. #ExtremeWeather #Infrastructure

12% of U.S. homeowners are now uninsured. Half of these households earn $40K or less. With premiums soaring, insurance is becoming a luxury many can't afford. susanpcrawford.substack.com/p/its-a-risk-c… #ClimateChange #HousingCrisis

The #ocean's energy is off the charts, and yet another catastrophic storm targets #Florida, just hours away. How much more battering can they take? With each hit, the question isn’t if insurance companies will leave, but who's left? #ClimateEmergency #hurricanemilton

With the North Atlantic at its highest SST anomaly in over 3 months + Nino3.4 descending into #LaNina values (@TropicalTidbits graphs), a reminder we are far from done with this #hurricane season. Transitioning years (neutral to La Niña) have the most hurricanes post-September.

It’s not just about one storm. Hurricane #Helene signals a larger pattern—rapid intensification, overwhelming rainfall, and unprepared infrastructure. The Southeast faces a future much like New York after Sandy. We must start planning now. susanpcrawford.substack.com/p/this-is-our-…

This is coming for all of us sooner or later - whether its flood or fire, disease, food or financial collapse - it's on its way and no one can say they were not warned.

180 confirmed dead and hundreds still missing. Helene is the deadliest mainland US Hurricane since Katrina. Climate change caused over 50% more rainfall in parts of Georgia and North Carolina. Big Oil is guilty of homicide. yaleclimateconnections.org/2024/10/helene…

The math is simple: warmer air holds more water, but the effects of climate change are anything but predictable. With each storm, we cross new thresholds. Are we prepared? Not yet. susanpcrawford.substack.com/p/this-is-our-… #ClimateCrisis #StormPreparedness

Truly, it stuns me that media figures, journalists and celebrities are not speaking up Predictions made decades ago are coming true Rainfall records obliterated across the world Summer 24 globally the hottest summer on record 2023 globally the hottest year on record Gulf stream weakening and likely the cause of stuck weather patterns in the UK Scientists being proven right Where this ends is hell on Earth: youtube.com/watch?v=2Jq23m…

How is it possible that 30 year credit ratings for Florida muni bonds are the same as 5 year ratings? With ferociously accelerating physical climate risks? susanpcrawford.substack.com/p/safe-as-hous…

Municipal bonds are being sold as "safe" bets, but cities like Miami & Phoenix are facing massive climate risks. Why aren't credit ratings accounting for the next 30 years of rising waters and extreme heat? susanpcrawford.substack.com/p/safe-as-hous… #ClimateChange #MuniBonds

A high-water mark eight feet above the previous record is insane. It is a discontinuity with all prior experience of the river. We'll be seeing more and more of these unprecedented events. The climate crisis is an era, not an issue.

⚠️(Nolichucky Dam Update)⚠️ The Nolichucky River has crested, and the dam remains intact. Water is currently receding by approximately one foot per hour. Our Dam Safety teams are in the process of assessing the condition of the dam to determine next steps. We are estimating water levels reached 8 feet over the record elevation.

Earth is now warmer than it has been in 100,000 years. We're on a trajectory towards levels of warming unprecedented in human history. A world no human has lived in. A world the next generation is on a trajectory to experience. Graphic: Potsdam Institute #ClimateCrisis

Storms like #Helene and Idalia are becoming more frequent and destructive—amplified by warming oceans and rising seas. How long this become the new normal? We can’t afford to ignore the signals. susanpcrawford.substack.com/p/catastrophic…
