About Orlando.
Orlando, Florida, while inland and relatively distant from the coastline, still faces considerable risk from hurricane threats. Its location in central Florida historically makes it susceptible to both Atlantic and Gulf storms, resulting in a higher potential for direct hurricane hits. Extreme wind speeds could result in severe property damage, uprooting trees and posing risks to powerlines, thus causing extended power outages. Additionally, Orlando's relatively low elevation can escalate the flood risk during heavy rainfall accompanying hurricanes. Looking at the hurricane history, the notable hurricanes include Hurricane Charlie in 2004, which caused severe damage across this area. Also, more recently, Hurricane Irma in 2017, wound up being an extreme rainfall producer causing considerable flooding in the region. Flooding also tends to be a major concern for Orlando due to the city's extensive network of lakes, which can overflow due to storm surges, rising groundwater tables, and excessive rain accumulation brought on by the hurricane. So while Orlando's inland location may provide some buffer from storm surge impacts directly from the coast, the city remains quite vulnerable to the wind and rain impacts of hurricanes.
