About Tavernier.
Tavernier, Florida, located in the Florida Keys, is in perpetual danger when it comes to hurricanes due to its direct exposure to the Atlantic Ocean. Its geographical proximity leaves it vulnerably prone to the initial brunt of any coastal storm system. Based on its low elevation - which averages at sea level, the town is also at an extremely high risk for substantial flood damage from storm surges. The storm surges in conjunction with average yearly rainfall can easily cause water levels to rise to hazardous levels.
In more recent history, Tavernier has been affected by significant hurricanes such as Hurricane Irma in 2017. The hurricane produced high-category winds and rains that resulted in significant flooding, making it one of the most impactful storms in Tavernier's recent history. Furthermore, the Island's infrastructure is not designed to withstand high-category hurricane ends. Hence, hurricane events are likely to cause widespread power outrages, property damage, and potential harm or loss of life. These circumstances underscore the urgency for adequate evacuation plans and adherence to government-issued storm advisories in safeguarding the residents of Tavernier, Florida.
