About Cudjoe Key.
Cudjoe Key, Florida, despite being a relatively small and unassuming island in the Lower Florida Keys, actually presents a significant threat in terms of potential hurricane impacts. Its geographic position as an outlying island puts it directly in the path of any potential tropical systems that may develop or regroup in the Gulf of Mexico or the Caribbean Sea. While it is technically located "off the coast”, its unique position makes it highly vulnerable to coastal storm surge, high winds, and heavy rainfall. Moreover, its relatively low elevation further increases its flood risk.
In terms of historical flood risk, Cudjoe Key's history shows it to have been in the direct path of several major storms. One of the most significant events being in 2017 when it was struck by Hurricane Irma, a Category 4 storm, causing major flooding and damage to properties. It was also affected by Category 5 Hurricane Andrew in 1992 and has suffered occasional damage from tropical storms throughout the last 30 years. The frequency and intensity of these events, coupled with rising sea levels, would suggest an elevated risk for future flooding and storm impact in Cudjoe Key.
