This is my assignment for the data products coursera class of the John Hopkins University

In this study I will investigate the consequences of hazardous weather for the economy and public health of the U.S. To achieve this I analyzed the NOAA Storms Data base for the most severe events regarding injuries, fatalities and financial damage. For my public health analysis I first looked at the top 10 events that caused the most injuries and fatalities and then at the distribution of the top events in both categories. For the economic consequences I first calculated the total financial damage caused for every event and then proceeded the same way as with the injury and fatality numbers.
