In accordance with Section 8(e) of the HIP-WI Endorsement and the Hurricane Data Provisions, the Risk Management Agency (RMA) reviewed the NOAA CPC dataset and preformed a re-analysis of the 2023 cyclones up to September 2, 2023. The approved counties will have an updated payment flag and triggering event date available by close of business today in the following formats:
