126. There will be more hurricanes in the future...

Did the simulation predict that this hurricane in particular would destroy NO? Or did the simulation show that such a hurricane could destroy NO if certain conditions were met, such as location of landfall?

It is in part thanks to simulations that people now have advanced warning of hurricanes. If this hurricane would have taken place 100 years ago, many thousands would have lost their lives.
