The US so far this year has experienced a record 23 natural disasters causing damage of at least $1 billion apiece, surpassing the previous record of 22 in 2020, according to NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration. The 23 events this year have caused over $57.6 billion in damage and at least 253 deaths, and NOAA is still determining whether Hurricane Hilary's impact in California and drought in the South and Midwest also have exceeded the billion-dollar threshold. https://lnkd.in/gsfXSjwx #HurricaneSeason #HurricaneHilary #FloodInsurance
