About Oakleaf Plantation.
Oakleaf Plantation, located in Clay County, Florida, is approximately 26 miles inland from the coast. While this distance somewhat insulates the area from the full force of coastal storm surge, the community isn't entirely immune to hurricane threats. The average ground elevation of Oakleaf Plantation is about 26 feet above sea level, which while not extremely low, does present the potential for river and flash flooding due to heavy rainfalls. The area is primarily drained by the Black Creek, a tributary of the St. Johns River, which has a history of flooding especially during severe storms. Other hurricane impacts, like destructive winds and tornadoes, should also be considered for this area.
In the last 30 years, a series of hurricanes and tropical storms have affected Oakleaf Plantation and its surrounding region, including significant flooding and wind damage. Notably, in 2017, Hurricane Irma caused drastic flooding, power outages and damage across Clay County, resulting to evacuation orders for many communities. In 2004, Hurricanes Charley, Frances, and Jeanne left a massive trail of destruction across Florida, also impacting areas around Oakleaf Plantation. Therefore, preparedness for such severe weather events is imperative for the residents of Oakleaf Plantation, Florida.
