As the peak summer holiday season begins, Irish holidaymakers set for foreign shores are being urged to check they're covered for any disruption which might be caused to their trips as a result of power outages and anti-tourist protests. This follows the power outages in Spain, Portugal and France in late April and local unrest in some Mediterranean tourist hotspots, where anti-tourism sentiment is showing no sign of waning. Experts at Peopl Insurance (Peopl.ie), a nationwide provider of travel insurance, are advising those travelling overseas this summer to be aware of any conditions and restrictions to their travel cover in the event that a protest or power outage disrupts or delays their holiday plans. In the wake of a recent escalation in foreign conflicts, Peopl Insurance is also urging people to understand any restrictions in their cover in the event their holiday is disrupted by war or armed conflicts. Dominic Lumsden, spokesman for Peopl Insurance, said: "Recent years have seen an increase in anti-tourist sentiment in some European tourist hotspots, with locals in some popular resorts protesting against mass tourism. With more anti-tourist protests expected in parts of the Mediterranean this summer, Irish holidaymakers could face travel disruption and delays. The Department of Foreign Affairs recently advised those travelling to Spain to be prepared to adjust their travel plans at short notice if necessary as a result of protests and public gatherings. Irish people with holiday plans for such destinations should ensure they're adequately covered before they travel. This may involve getting a travel disruption add-on as not all standard policies cover loss or damage which arises on foot of civil protests. Similarly, the recent power blackouts in Spain, Portugal and France led to widespread travel delays and flight cancellations, with some tourist hotspots experiencing further, albeit localised, power outages since. If this continues, power outages could become the next big headache for holidaymakers. Furthermore, recent foreign conflicts, including the military activity in India and Pakistan, led to flight cancellations and diversions. In circumstances such as these, it's worth being aware of your air passenger rights as well as where you stand under your travel insurance. Most travel insurance policies offer delayed departure cover, which may offer some protection in this regard, but it's important to check the small print on your policy." Strikes and Extreme Weather Peopl is also urging holidaymakers to ensure they are adequately covered for strikes and extreme weather events. "Strikes - including air traffic control - already caused travel disruption across Europe in April. As strikes often occur throughout the peak holiday months, this is a risk that Irish holidaymakers always need to be mindful of. Some travel insurance policies will cover you if you have to abandon your holiday, if you miss your flight or if your holiday is delayed as a result of an unexpected work stoppage or strike. But other travel insurers don't cover strikes, and with some policies, the cover is more restricted than others. So, it is very important to check the small print of a travel insurance policy before you buy. Holidaymakers should also be mindful of the increased frequency of extreme weather events - such as wildfires and floods, as well the risk of natural disasters - such as earthquakes or volcanoes, as these could all play havoc with their holiday. Losses arising directly or indirectly from adverse weather conditions or natural disasters may or may not be covered by your travel insurance. It's very important therefore that you check your travel insurance policy to find out if you will be covered if wildfires disrupt your holiday or indeed any other extreme weather events or natural disasters - such as, for example, if you have to be evacuated, or have to change plans, or are even injured. Again, you need to check the small print ...

Guest: Dr. Brian Bledsoe, University of GeorgiaWhen a hurricane makes landfall, we expect the strongest impacts to hit the coast. But Hurricane Helene proved that the story doesn't end there. With hurricane-force winds reaching more than 350 miles inland, this storm challenged the way we think about extreme weather risk. Are we truly prepared for the full reach of a hurricane, not just this decade but for centuries to come? Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by Dr. Brian Bledsoe from the University of Georgia, who is an expert on infrastructure and making future building more resilient. There are many opportunities to build back better, smarter, and safer after these events happen, and hopefully strive to not have to rebuild in the same places over and over. From infrastructure challenges to communication gaps, we'll explore what needs to change to keep these communities—both coastal and inland—safe.Chapters00:00 Understanding Hurricane Helene's Impact04:58 Assessing Infrastructure Resilience15:11 Lessons Learned from Hurricane Helene28:02 Addressing Multiple Natural Disasters40:00 The Importance of Comprehensive Infrastructure PlanningSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On May 16, 2025, an EF3 tornado tore through the city of St. Louis causing massive destruction. Instead of responding with aid to those who were impacted, the city deployed police to black communities and condemned 5,000 homes and buildings without fully reviewing if these designations were warranted. Some homes were condemned even though repairs were made. Clearing the FOG speaks with President Westbrook of the St. Louis branch of the International People's Democratic Uhuru Movement and Jesse Nevel, chair of the Uhuru Solidarity Movement, about what the city is currently doing to force Black residents from their homes, how this is part of a longer-term effort and why it is necessary to support residents there.

In Europe, flooding was the most prevalent—and most expensive—climate peril last year, making 2024 the “Year of the Flood.” On this episode of Critical Point, five authors of Milliman's annual Extreme Weather in Europe report assess the toll of flooding in their country and the response from insurers, governing bodies, and communities. They discuss what Italy is doing to protect the insurance industry, how construction in the UK and France may be contributing to flood risk, and why new regulations in Romania and the Benelux region may not do enough to keep pace with climate change. Don't miss the full Extreme Weather in Europe report, as well as the related paper, Flood risk modelling in Europe, both available at Milliman.com.

This podcast series is part of the AASHTO Environmental Management technical service program operated by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials. It explores a wide array of environmental topics that affect state departments of transportation and the infrastructure programs they oversee.Ken Kunkel – principal research scholar at the North Carolina Institute of Climate Studies at North Carolina State University – offers a wealth of knowledge on all things meteorology and extreme precipitation, including over 40 years of climate and precipitation research. He is an author on the third and fourth U.S. National Climate Assessments. He is also the lead author of the 2020 North Carolina Climate Science Report. He has published around 170 scientific journal articles and book chapters, mostly on climate variability and change.In this episode Kunkel discusses the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration or NOAA tool known as Atlas 15. The purpose of Atlas 15 is to produce extreme precipitation values that are used in design in infrastructure. Atlas 15 is also able to incorporate changing climate models when producing future data. He dives into how effective and accurate Atlas 15 is and how its data can improve the resiliency of infrastructure, particularly in the transportation sector.
