As the climate changes, ‘normal’ baselines about weather, storms and more are changing, too. In this video series — The New Normal — we explore changing baselines and what it means for coastal residents and communities. The series is funded by the NOAA Gulf of Mexico Regional Collaboration Network and developed in a partnership between the GCOOS Outreach and Education Council and Robin Cooper, Executive Producer, Future Vision Multisensory Media.

In The New Normal: Hurricanes, we look at how hurricane impacts have changed over time and how you can be prepared for the new normal. Special thanks are extended to collaborator Roy Kron, Director of Communications at Louisiana Sea Grant, for generously sharing their disaster and recovery photo albums for this video.
