Climate resilience context

Austin uses the Texas state resilience seed. The scenarios linked to this city page are flooding, freezes and winter cold snaps, extreme heat, and hurricanes / coastal tropical storms; they are state-level hazards, not city incident claims.

• flooding

  Texas flood risk is severe along the Gulf Coast, Hill Country, urban bayous, and low-water crossings after tropical or stalled storms.

• freezes and winter cold snaps

  Texas freeze risk is high-impact because many homes are built for heat, with pipes in exterior walls, attics, garages, or unconditioned spaces.

• extreme heat

  Texas heat domes can last for weeks, driving attic temperatures, AC runtime, transformer stress, and indoor heat illness risk during outages.

• hurricanes / coastal tropical storms

  Texas has Gulf hurricane exposure from the Rio Grande Valley through Houston and the upper coast, with surge, bayou flooding, wind, and long power outages.
