Last similar one before 38 was the colonial hurricane.  These things only happen once every few hundred years.

Mother Nature:  "oh would you look at that!  It's only been 84 years, better cancel what I had in store for SNE.  Need to wait another hundred years. Drat."

I was too high

From a coastal risk perspective, U.S. emergency officials should consider a plan involving a major hurricane – at Category 3 or higher intensity – every 30 to 40 years instead of every 100 or 200 years as currently believed.

I mean I'd take those return rates with a grain of salt since we're relying just on cores, but with a warming climate maybe we get above that threshold which allows a higher frequency of majors getting up to our latitude.

But flow is faster during a warming climate, so it would push them out to sea more.
