It is estimated that 10,000 people die each year worldwide due to hurricanes and tropical storms. The
majority of human deaths are caused by flooding.
Hurricane Irma hit Florida as a Category 4 storm the morning of Sept. 10, 2017, ripping off roofs,
flooding coastal cities, and knocking out power to more than people. The storm and its aftermath has
killed at least 38 in the Caribbean, 34 in Florida, three in Georgia, four in South Carolina, and one in
North Carolina.
The occurrences of these natural disasters have been on a high which is a concern for United Nation;
The World Meteorological Organization (specialized agency of UN) has been collecting data about all
the individuals that are living in and around Hurricanes and Cyclones prone areas. In the aftermath of
Irma, WMO wants to find a pattern or a relation between the attributes that will prove whether an
individual will SURVIVE OR NOT SURVIVE any hurricane/cyclones in the near future.
