Flooding, hurricanes and convective storms are expected to drive the most housing market losses across the United States in the coming years, according to a new analysis reported by CBS News.
CBS News described the analysis as finding that those three types of weather would cause the most losses to the housing market. The summary of the article does not say how large those losses are expected to be, how they were calculated, or which group conducted the analysis.
The headline of the CBS News article asks where in the United States homeowners are most at risk of extreme weather. The summary available for this report names no states, regions or cities, so this account cannot answer that question.
The headline and the summary frame the subject differently. The summary describes losses to the housing market as a whole, while the headline describes risk to homeowners. The summary does not define what counts as a housing market loss.
Neither the summary nor the headline gives a time frame beyond the phrase "in the coming years." The article's byline was not included in the material provided for this report, and the summary does not name any experts, officials or companies.
Because the source material is limited, this account is confined to the points stated in the CBS News summary and headline.
