About Andrews.
Given its location in north-central Florida, the town of Andrews is approximately 50 miles from both the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. This distance from the coast can both reduce and intensify the impacts of a hurricane. The town could experience downgraded storm categories (providing some relief), but the effect of a slow-moving storm could result in prolonged periods of heavy rains leading to serious inland flooding. Additionally, Andrews lies at a relatively low elevation, increasing its risk of flood-related damage, particularly from the potentially high rainfall totals hurricanes can bring.
Historically, Andrews has faced significant impacts from hurricanes and flooding. The past three decades have seen a number of strong hurricanes impacting the area, including Hurricane Irma in 2017 which caused severe flooding due to heavy rainfall and storm surge. The residents were faced with power outages, property damage and transportation interruptions. The notorious 2004 hurricane season, which included Hurricane Frances, also resulted in heavy rainfall and flooding in the area. As a result, hurricane preparation in Andrews involves not only planning for direct wind and rain impacts, but also for potential flooding and the associated after-effects, such as lingering water damage, mold growth, and infrastructure damage.
