THE DEADLIEST, COSTLIEST, AND MOST INTENSE UNITED STATES TROPICAL CYCLONES FROM 1851 TO 2010
"This technical memorandum lists the deadliest tropical cyclones in the United States during 1851-
2010 and the costliest tropical cyclones in the United States during 1900-2010. The compilation
ranks damage, as expressed by monetary losses, in three ways: 1) contemporaneous estimates; 2)
contemporaneous estimates adjusted by inflation to 2010 dollars; and 3) contemporaneous estimates
adjusted for inflation and the growth of population and personal wealth (Pielke et al. 2008) to 2010 dollars. In addition, the most intense (i.e., major 1) hurricanes to make landfall in the United States during the 160-year period are listed. Also presented are some additional statistics on United States hurricanes and tropical cyclones in general.."
