DEEPDIVE – DALLAS / FORTWORTH PRESENT DAY RISK

The Present: • Heat and precipitation represent the highest current risks, with consistent results across each submarket. • Flood risk is relatively low in most cases, though the most risk-exposed sites in the Great Southwest, Stemmons Corridor, and Valwood/N Stemmons have significant flood risk exposure. Here, we see maximum risk approaching 100— many times higher than the average for that submarket. • Wildfire risk is lower compared to other factors, but variability within markets requires monitoring. This is likely influenced by local topography and other physical factors, such as adjacent land use. • Cold weather risk is relatively low but worth considering, given that extreme events have historically had a knock-on impact on electrical grids and related infrastructure. The Future: • Heat and precipitation risks are forecast to increase over time across all key submarkets. • Forecasts show a decrease in hail, drought, and cold. • Overall risks are increasing, influenced more by what is rising—heat and rain—than by what is falling: hail, drought, or cold.
