The U.S. coastal area most vulnerable to a hurricane strike this year is the Southeast stretch between the Florida-Georgia Border and Cape Hatteras, N.C., according to a new forecast.
That prediction comes from Guy Carpenter reinsurance brokerage which produces the GC ForeCat product with WSI Corp..
ForeCat regularly evaluates four different regions for their chances of seeing a tropical cyclone make landfall. In addition to the Southeast, the other regions are Northeast from Cape Hatteras to Maine, the entire Florida coastline and the Gulf from the Florida-Alabama border through Texas.
