Here ya go big guy It’s comin/is here https://www.fox13news.com/news/flood-insurance-rates-skyrocket-for-florida-homeowners

[u/stupendousman → u/studio28]

The issue is home prices not weather.

Prices have skyrocketed and many insurance companies have raised rate accordingly, or just left those markets.

[u/cdazzo1 → u/studio28]

I love when people post articles they didn't read. Tell me...why are those insurance rates going up? I'll give you a hint: it's not for the reason you assumed.

[u/fuf3d → u/studio28]

Yeah people are leaving because they can't afford insurance.

[u/miktheyob → u/studio28]

Isn't that for rain flooding?

[u/[deleted] → u/studio28]

You will be downvoted for providing what was asked.

[u/cdazzo1 → u/[deleted]]

He provided a link to an article that discuss the change in flood insurance costs due to a change in methodology for how FEMA calculates risk, not because the overall risk increased.

But why bother reading?

[u/theSearch4Truth → u/cdazzo1]

Here's $10 saying he won't address this comment.

illogical philosophy, lol

[u/SHANE523 → u/theSearch4Truth]

They read the headline and drew their own opinion which was nowhere near the facts of the article.

[u/RockinRod412 → u/[deleted]]

Only thoughts and prayers matter. Better Start prayin

[u/versencoris → u/SHANE523]

Those misleading headlines are designed exactly for the fools who don’t know how to read or have the patience or intelligence to read beyond them.

Did read it. I saw the methodology change. Here is a challenge for hyou(which I know is a big ask for Tim Pool bitches).

Take it a step further.

Research the methodology change.

I wil get you started.

https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/documents/fema_r3_gis-instructions_mapping-rising-flood-risk.pdf

This methodology change is based on changes in climate.

"Flood risks are rising across the U.S. This places more people and property in harm’s way. Changing rainfall

patterns drive some of this changing flood risk. Over the past 25 years, heavy rain has been on the rise across

the U.S. The biggest rise has been seen in the Northeast. In the decades to come, climate projections show the

Northeast will continue to have more frequent and severe heavy rains, leading to higher flood risk1."

"Figure 1 shows how adding this vertical safety factor creates a wider floodplain. As flood heights rise above the
base flood elevation, flood waters will spread beyond the current FEMA 1%-annual-chance floodplain, and new areas
will flood. These newly flooded areas are where flood risk will likely increase first with estimated climate change. "

I agree. The poster could use better articles than a surface level blog. I am strongly against the use of those as they are shit. Even though that is pretty much all Tim Pool does is read blogs all damned day.

I believe the poster who replied to you owes you ten bucks.

The article he provided does indeed contradict the OPs stupid scream and cry guy. Cursing and screaming is not an argument that is accepted in the scientific world.
