Society has become more vulnerable to hurricane impacts. Hurricane-related damages have risen dramatically in recent years. In the aftermath of any extreme event there is a demand for a bottom-line measure of damages in dollars. Sectors impacted are retail, hospitality, construction, agriculture/farming, infrastructure and last but not the least Finance and most likely the insurance sector.
