Methodology

Public data. Real science. No black boxes.

Every score is computed from decades of public weather records using physics-based probability modeling. It's the same approach used by insurance and risk management professionals.

Decades of public weather data

Hurricane tracks, storm intensities, fire perimeters, hail reports, all drawn from public scientific archives. We don't use proprietary data. You can audit every input.

Physics-based probability modeling

Scores reflect how the actual peril behaves: wind fields, fire spread, ground shaking, and storm tracks. The model keeps the physics visible instead of flattening every place into a broad average.

Used by professionals

The same PerilScore data layer is used by insurance and risk management professionals. We publish it here so anyone can find authoritative risk numbers for their location.

Real data from the PerilScore model

Representative local scores backed by public data.

Every score published on this site is computed from decades of public weather data using physics-based probability modeling. It’s the same approach used by insurance and risk management professionals.

We publish it here so that anyone searching for risk in a specific ZIP, city, or county can find authoritative, citable numbers.

Frequently asked questions

Where does the tornado risk score come from?
Every score is computed from decades of public weather data (NOAA Storm Events tornado records, including EF-rating, path length, and width) using physics-based probability modeling.
Does this match the SPC tornado climatology?
Our model uses the same underlying NOAA records as the Storm Prediction Center’s climatology, but produces a single comparable 0–10 risk score per location designed for risk modeling and insurance use.
How is Dixie Alley risk different from Tornado Alley?
Dixie Alley (AL, MS, TN, AR) has a higher proportion of long-track and nocturnal tornadoes, which raises the risk score even where overall tornado counts are similar.
