Storms and other severe weather events can cause both public health and economic problems for communities and municipalities. This project involves exploring the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) storm database. It’s going to answering two questions: (1) Across the United States, which types of events are most harmful with respect to population health? (2) Across the United States, which types of events have the greatest economic consequences? The answers are tonardo and flood respectively.
