I have been consistent in saying over and over for the past couple of years that WEATHER is the biggest threat we face
not just in terms of loss of life but what I think will (long-term) be an even bigger "issue" -- the incredible costs associated with property losses in heavily populated areas
I have talked a LOT about the increased costs associated with these storms, suggesting (more than once) that a lot of high-priced real estate is going to get hammered hard
this is going to happen again this week
on top of that, I have been saying (too) that I expect bigger hurricanes to start making landfall along the Atlantic coast, specifically in North and South Carolina (yes, that is what I said, more than once)
but potentially all the way up the coast to Long Island and NYC
this is different now; the weather is different
and just because you like a certain place doesn't mean it is "immune" to getting blown away
I believe this is the "new normal"
and for a lot of people the new normal . . . ain't good
