Climate resilience context

Fort Lauderdale uses the Florida state resilience seed. The scenarios linked to this city page are flooding, extreme heat, and hurricanes / coastal tropical storms; they are state-level hazards, not city incident claims.

flooding
Florida flood risk is coastal and inland: surge, king tides, high groundwater, slow drainage, canal backups, and hurricane rainfall.
extreme heat
Florida extreme heat is humid and persistent; heat index, attic temperatures, algae growth, and storm-season outages make AC resilience a safety issue.
hurricanes / coastal tropical storms
Florida has the highest year-round tropical exposure in this launched set: Atlantic and Gulf landfalls, surge, wind-borne debris, roof uplift, and long outage windows.
