Florida Public Hurricane Loss Projection Model

The Florida Public Hurricane Loss Projection Model is supported by a research grant from the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation. It is being developed by a consortium of Florida universities and NOAA's Hurricane Research Division of the Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory. Below is a list of historical Florida hurricanes used in evaluating this model versus the Base Set of Florida land-falling hurricanes (M-1) created by the Florida Commission on Hurricane Loss Projection Methodology.

Our Base Set is based on the
December 2009 version of the HURDAT file
(truncated to 20th and 21st Centuries only)

containing storm data through the 2009 hurricane season.

Here is Latest version of the HURDAT2 file (in a revised format)
containing storm data through the 2011 hurricane season.
