There's higher chances of hurricanes hitting the NE than tornadoes in Vermont or wildfires in Michigan. You're assuming the absolute worst risk of a Cat-5, but it doesn't take a Cat-5 to cause tremendous damage (see Sandy). I never said the Gulf Coast was not at a higher risk for hurricanes either, but to believe the NE is immune to hurricanes or earthquakes is being dishonest.
