I found this to be very interesting – The International Journal of Health Geographics released spatial patterns of natural hazard mortalities with in the United States at the county-level for the U.S. from 1970-2004.

To define “natural hazards” we are talking about events like flooding, earthquakes, heat/cold, hurricanes… turns out normal,  “everyday weather” accounts for the majority of weather fatalities.

I was going to embed the PDF in the site, but it’s rather big. Instead, you can download it here.
