Even if we’ve just been through a tough pandemic that obliged us to stay inside, climate disasters didn’t cease to exist, wreaking havoc outside our houses. In the last two winters, a wave of storms and cold hit the Northwest, Central, and Eastern America.

If we’re in this chapter, let’s discuss 10 expensive natural disasters in U.S. history.
