Ten-Year Gap in Major Hurricanes Continues

The video discusses the categorization of hurricanes, focusing on those that reach category three or higher, which are considered major storms. It highlights the impact of hurricanes, even those below category three, due to heavy rains and storm surges. The video reviews historical data, noting a 10-year gap in major hurricanes making landfall in the US, which is unusual according to a NASA study. The study suggests such a gap occurs every 270 years, but the chance of a major hurricane hitting the US remains at 40% annually. The reasons for the gap are unknown, but major hurricanes have been present, just not making landfall.
