Summary
Abstract: NWS Weather Fatality, Injury and Damage Statistics

The U.S. Natural Hazard Statistics provide statistical information on
fatalities, injuries and damages caused by weather related hazards. These
statistics are compiled by the Office of Services and the National Climatic
Data Center from information contained in Storm Data, a report comprising data
from NWS forecast offices in the 50 states, Puerto Rico, Guam and the Virgin
Islands.
