People who live in cities by the coast naturally worry about flooding and rising seawater as climate change warms waters. But as the recent Asheville flooding shows us, even cities far from the coast can experience disasters thanks to climate change. A Cushman Wakefield report highlights eight kinds of hazard exposures in 100 global cities and how that is forecast to change for the worse in the future. There are 30 U.S. cities on the list.

　　The hazard types are wind, flood, precipitation, hail, heat, cold, wildfire and drought. The worldwide cities are placed into four groups: those with low exposure that will improve over time (no cities are in that group), with low exposure that will worsen over time (roughly half), with high exposure that will improve (no cities) and high exposure that will worsen (again, roughly half).

　　The U.S. cities that are currently at low exposure overall that will worsen are, in alphabetical order:

　　Birmingham

　　Charlotte

　　Cincinnati

　　Detroit

　　Los Angeles

　　Philadelphia

　　Pittsburgh

　　Portland

　　San Diego

　　San Francisco

　　Seattle

　　St. Louis

　　The U.S. cities that are currently at high exposure overall that will worsen are, in alphabetical order: Atlanta Austin Boston Chicago Dallas Denver Houston Jacksonville Kansas City Miami New York Orlando Phoenix San Antonio San Jose Tampa Las Vegas Washington, D.C. For each subcategory of hazard, here are the most at-risk U.S. cities: Wind: Miami

　　Flood: Miami

　　Precipitation: Houston and Miami

　　Hail: Dallas

　　Heat: Phoenix

　　Cold: Denver

　　Wildfire: Phoenix

　　Drought: Chicago and Denver
