- It was fun reading your paper @tloridan.bsky.social and Nicholas Bruneau! I tried explaining it to my daughter but she was a bit too distracted by the baby animals video I put on for her on my extra monitor 😁

- This is by far the most insightful book I have read in probably forever. It's given me the perspective on disasters I've been missing for so long as it's the story no one (perdominantly the media) talks about. Can definitely recommend if you're still looking for a xmas present!

- 🙌 Thank you Brian for this extensive overview! I was just getting started on making a ppt of the season, your blog provides a comprehensive summary of all there needs to be discussed.
- One interesting fact that I just realized from checking my notes is that *all* major hurricanes underwent rapid intensification this season. The only exception is midgetOscar, that RI'd to Cat1 intensity.
- meridian.allenpress.com/ijmsc/articl... At first I thought this was ChatGPT at work, to write a paper on my life, but nope, someone has actually published the crossover of my chronic illness and my area of expertise😅
- I do have to say the paper has a pretty important recommendation: make "healthcare planning for chronically ill people" part of hurricane prepping, prior to the season's start. Discuss possible scenarios related to hurricane impacts and med. treatments with your healthcare provider.
- I recognize my fortune in living in NL, outside the hurricane-prone region (for now, let's see what climate change brings us), but I resonate really well with delayed treatments negatively affecting my physical well-being. Now imagine if the cause of delay would be a significant hurricane impact...

- Very nice visualization and communication of uncertainty in weather forecasts by the British Met Office! *takes notes*
- Reposted by Nadia BloemendaalThe Philippines have now been hit by four typhoons in the span of just 10 days. Can't say I recall ever seeing this before.

- Hey! I'm new here :) I am an assistant professor at the VU & researcher at KNMI. I study tropical cyclone risk under climate change, but slowly evolving to studying other storm systems as well. Also have a special interest for disaster management, communication and risk perception. 🌀
