The following factors combine to make society as a whole and business in particular tremendously vulnerable to weather.

• Over the last ten years, the weather in some areas is becoming increasingly severe, with more tornadoes and hurricanes.
  
• Business and people continue to flock to hurricane-prone states.
  
• Just-in-time inventories, airline-hub systems, double-stack railcars, deregulation of the wholesale electric industry and other new business practices have greatly increased the exposure of many industries to adverse weather.
