This cell's combined hazard score is 27.8; its strongest pillar is climate velocity at 82.3 and its weakest is coast at 1.8. Flood. Flood pillar 27.0, safer than 27% of land cells; modelled hundred-year river flood depth 0.23 m.

Wind pillar 2.9, safer than 3% of land cells; tropical storm passes nearby 3.1 storms/decade. Source: IBTrACS (vintage: v04r01). Earthquake. Earthquake pillar 13.0, safer than 13% of land cells; large earthquakes nearby since the start of the century before last 0.79 events/century.

Coast pillar 1.8, safer than 2% of land cells; five-hundred-year tsunami run-up on the nearest coast 6.7 m. Source: Global Tsunami Model (vintage: 2017, earthquake sources only). Climate velocity. Climate velocity pillar 82.3, safer than 82% of land cells; observed warming rate 0.21 °C/decade. Source: NASA GISTEMP (vintage: 2024). Coverage: Tornado records cover the United States only, so this area has no tornado reading: a gap in the record, not a measured zero. This is a statistical summary of public hazard data, a research estimate, not advice about any property or decision.
Terra scores ~10 km hexagonal cells from public global datasets — it is area analysis, not a property assessment. Tornado history covers the United States only; flood hazard is modeled at ~1 km and ignores local defenses; hurricane records before 1966 and wildfire records before 2001 are incomplete. Where data is missing or coarse for your area, Terra says so instead of guessing.
