      "Three kinds of story run in every subtopic: direct impacts (what happened, where, to whom, at what cost); projections (what the models, the insurers, the agencies and the research expect); and responses (what people do about the risk: adaptation investment, codes, hardening, retreat, and what resilience costs and who pays). An edition should carry more than one kind where the day offers them; a projection or a response ranks by what it changes.",
      "Trends and outlooks leads the edition. A story there is about a pattern across events: the shifting baseline, records and the margin by which they fall, attribution, outlooks and reports. Major events carries single incidents at a high bar. When an event's coverage connects it to the trend, the event goes to Major events and its summary says so; an attribution study of the event goes to Trends and outlooks.",
      "Every candidate is assigned to exactly one subtopic. A storm goes to Major events, its insured-loss estimate to Insurance and risk transfer, its federal aid to Public finance, its grid failures to Infrastructure. A drought declaration goes to Water; the same drought's crop losses go to Food and agriculture; its effect on barge traffic goes to Infrastructure. Home values and insurance-driven repricing in exposed places go to Property and communities; an insurer's withdrawal from a state goes to Insurance.",
      "Weights are all 1.0, as in the other topics, so a later private view can reweight without changing the shape.",
      "History. v1 (2026-10-23) had three subtopics named by the owner: weather volatility, water, economics. v2 and v3 (2026-10-25) were vocabulary only. v4 (2026-10-25) follows the owner's read of five days of editions, 33 stories: weather too episodic, economics only the surface. Weather volatility split into Trends and outlooks and Major events; Economics split into Insurance, Property, Public finance and Infrastructure; Food and agriculture added; responses added as a third story kind. Stories filed before v4 keep their old subtopics, weather-volatility and economics.",
      "Decisions taken as the session's recommendations on 2026-10-25, open to the owner's revision: the eight subtopics; food and agriculture in; responses as a story kind; caps of three per subtopic; geography global with U.S. depth where the reporting is; Google News search feeds admitted as signal for the thinnest subtopics, since the coverage step resolves their headlines by search; the cadence and the page role unchanged."
