It may be behind a paywall for you, but in case it's not, this was an interesting read this morning.

A relevant quote:

The widely-held assumption about hurricanes and tidal surge has been that, if it hasn’t happened before, it’s unlikely to happen at all, and even if it has happened before, it’s less likely to happen again any time soon. But it is increasingly clear that Florida’s relationship with the natural environment is no longer what the past has led us to expect.

A more straightforward construction might have been, "Florida's relationship with the natural environment is no longer what it was in the past, so your expectations lack historical foundation."

Although it may be confirmation bias on my part, but it seems to me that it is beginning to dawn on a significant number of people that Florida is facing a profound challenge, and one that it is ill-prepared to confront.
