This report documents the Exploratory Data Analysis performed on Blogs, News and Twitter (Tweets) data from a corpus called HC Corpora. This analysis was a pre-cursor for building a word prediction algorithm for the Capstone Data Science Project.

In this report we analyse the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) storm database (events starting in 1950 thru to November 2011) to answer the following questions: 1. Across the United States, which types of events are most harmful with respect to population health? 2. Across the United States, which types of events have the greatest economic consequences?
