Hurricane Risk by State

The meaning of the various binning possibilities and height specifications may be found at Histogram under "More Information".

The damage distributions are based on modeling work done by ICAT. That organization collected historic economic losses from all Atlantic coastal storms since 1900 and then attempted to compute the amount of damage those storms would cause today. The methodology is described briefly at How is the damage calculated? and more fully in R. Pielke et. al., "Normalized Hurricane Damage in the United States: 1900-2005," Natural Hazards Review, 9(1), 2008 pp. 29–42 (available at this link). Further results from the ICAT modeler may be found at ICAT Damage Estimator.

Insured losses from each of the storms will be smaller than damages.
