Lessons from Sandy: Storm Surge Modeling Surge is only partially dependent on storm intensity. Do the models reflect that large surges can be generated by weaker hurricanes or storms undergoing transition Flooded areas in New York by hurricane category (SSHS) Category 1 Category 2 Category 3 Category 4 Source: Munich Re – Severe weather in North America, 2012
Lessons from Sandy: Flood Exposure Data • There are no statistical inland flood models available for the United States (coastal surge modeling exists), largely due to the fact that most flood risks in the US are federally insured via the NFIP. • Historically, there has been low demand by model clients to develop these models. • Developing an inland flood model would be a huge project, taking modeling companies years to develop. • As a result, the capturing of data for privately-insured flood risks in the industry significantly lags data capture for other perils. • Current modeling of flood risks for surge, when known, is also limited by ability of models to handle flood sublimits and accurately determine amount of flood damage that “leaks” into the wind policy claim.
