Ormond Beach, situated directly on Florida's East Coast, faces an elevated vulnerability to hurricanes and the associated impacts including storm surge flooding, excessive rainfall leading to local flooding, and strong winds. The town's near-sea-level elevation and proximity to the coastline expose it to a high risk for storm surge, which can lead to significant flooding, infrastructure damage, and coastal erosion. Aside from this, the heavy rainfall amounts associated with hurricanes can overwhelm local drainage systems leading to flash floods, especially in low-lying areas. The surrounding lush vegetation and numerous trees also provide a risk for falling trees and branches during high wind events. Looking at the historical hurricane impacts on Ormond Beach, Hurricane Matthew in 2016 and Hurricane Irma in 2017 had significant effects on this Florida town. Both hurricanes caused considerable storm surge flooding and damage, and in Irma's case, river flooding was a major problem caused by relentless heavy rain. Hurricane Dorian in 2019 threatened the area with powerful winds, but luckily did not make direct landfall on the Florida coast. The past shows a clear pattern of risk that should be noted for future hurricane seasons. This historical context paired with its geographical characteristics suggests each hurricane season should be taken seriously in Ormond Beach to ensure the safety of its residents and to mitigate property damage.
