I thought this USA article on expected damage versus hurricane strength was worth sharing. The graphics mid-way the article are pretty clear - from mild to total destruction. Recovery periods from days to months.

Of course, this is not off topic with respect to BRK insurance and reinsurance operations.

It's also interesting to me that recent hurricanes are springing up in the Caribbean or Gulf rather than the Atlantic. That doesn't keep them from becoming powerful quickly. September, usually the highest month for Atlantic hurricanes has seemed pretty quiet this year - not what was expected.
