Under the SSP5-8.5 stress test for 2085, the combined score is 26 of 100.

This cell's combined hazard score is 31.8; its strongest pillar is water stress at 60.8 and its weakest is wind at 3.4. Flood. Flood pillar 25.0, safer than 9% of land cells and level with 32%; modelled hundred-year river flood depth 0.41 m.

Wind pillar 3.4, safer than 3% of land cells; tropical storm passes nearby 2.3 storms/decade. Source: IBTrACS (vintage: v04r01). Earthquake. Earthquake pillar 6.9, safer than 7% of land cells; large earthquakes nearby since the start of the century before last 2.4 events/century.

Wildfire pillar 47.0, safer than 45% of land cells and level with 5%; satellite fire detections 0.023 detections/km²/yr. Source: NASA FIRMS (vintage: MODIS C6.1 2001-2024, vegetation fires, confidence >= 30); NASA FIRMS VIIRS (vintage: VIIRS NOAA-20 2020-2024, vegetation fires, nominal or high confidence); ERA5 Fire Weather Index (vintage: 1991-2020). Water stress. Water stress pillar 60.8, safer than 48% of land cells and level with 25%; water stress 0 score. Source: WRI Aqueduct 4.0 (vintage: Aqueduct 4.0, July 2023). 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.
