Notes: Each column is a separate regression. See notes under Table 1 for information on the sample of analysis and the storms and hurricanes.

In addition to the listed covariates, all regressions include main effects for mother’s race, age, education, marital status, and number of children as well as conception year and conception month fixed effects. The regressions in the 2nd and 4th columns also include fixed effects for the mother’s first county of residence. All robust standard errors are clustered on the mother’s first county of residence

Omitted categories: mother’s race - other; mother’s age <20; mother’s education college+; mother is unmarried.
