As sea levels go up, flooding from even low-level storms will become more destructive, scientists say. At times I think we get too locked in on the strongest storms, the Category 3, 4 and 5s, said Marshall Shepherd, a University of Georgia atmospheric scientist. But if you look at the last five or 10 years, even the weaker...
