Episode description

Guest: Dr. Jeremy Porter

When we talk about weather disasters, our minds often go towards tornadoes, hurricanes, and severe weather. But flooding is the most common, and most expensive, natural disaster in the United States. First Street Foundation, a science and technology nonprofit, has released a new study evaluating the flood risk to our nation’s critical infrastructure. The study evaluates the risk for every neighborhood, zip code, city and county in the country. Joining us today is Dr. Jeremy Porter, who leads the research & development efforts at First Street Foundation, to break down the findings and impacts of this expansive research study.
