This one is always a hoot. As if damage is relevant in any way, shape or form. A Cat 3 is a Cat 3 is a Cat 3. We have detailed records of all Atlantic hurricanes for the last 100 years. Other than 2004 which was a perfect storm of Tropical activity, the past 20 years is no different in number or intensity of hurricanes for the past 100 years.

� Global hurricane, cyclonic and major storm activity is near 30-year lows. Any increase in cost of damages by storms is a product of increasing population density in vulnerable areas such as along the shores and property value inflation, not due to any increase in frequency or severity of storms.
