The most deaths from natural causes do not come from hurricanes, tornadoes and heat waves.
A report from the Centers for Disease Control finds that weather kills at least 2,000 Americans each year.
Nearly two-thirds of the deaths are from the cold.
That may surprise some people, the researchers acknowledge.
One of the report's authors says hurricanes, tornadoes and heat waves "get more publicity, for some reason, than cold-related deaths."
