MIAMI—Hurricane season is right around the corner and forecasters are predicting the most active and dangerous spell in three years. The next three years of the 2015 Atlantic Basin, in fact, will be the most dangerous in 10 years, according to Global Weather Oscillations (GWO), a hurricane cycle prediction company.

While hostile upper atmospheric winds that suppressed tropical activity the past two hurricane seasons—2013 and 2014—GWO predicts the next few years will enter a natural “Climate Pulse Enhancement Cycle” that will be favorable for more active and intense hurricane seasons. What does that mean for commercial real estate owners?

GlobeSt.com caught up with Evan Seacat, senior director at Franklin Street Insurance Services in South Florida, to get some answers. In part one of this exclusive interview we asked him how policy owners tend to put themselves at risk and how building owners can take a hit during a storm.
