When will anthropogenic climate change signals be detected in US tropical cyclone loss data?

No anthropogenic climate change influence on Atlantic tropical cyclone behaviour and concomitant damage has yet been detected, though such an influence is projected in the future. Using projections from a recent study in Science I show that anthropogenic signals are very unlikely to emerge in a time series of normalised US tropical cyclone losses at time scales of less than a century. This result extends more generally to global weather-related natural disaster losses.
