About Horseshoe Beach.
Horseshoe Beach, located directly on the Gulf Coast of Florida, is at a considerable hurricane threat being just steps from the water and at a low average elevation of 3 feet above sea level. As such, it is exposed to the potential for storm surge and flooding, which can go hand in hand with hurricanes. These two factors, in combination with heavy rainfall, could cause significant damage to homes and infrastructure. The area's flat terrain doesn't support rapid water runoff, thereby increasing the risk of sustained flooding. Furthermore, high winds associated with hurricanes could down trees and power lines, resulting in power outages and blocked routes of transportation.
Historically, Horseshoe Beach has been significantly impacted by hurricanes and floods. Notably, Hurricane Hermine made landfall near this area in 2016 as a Category 1 storm, bringing wind, rain, and storm surge that resulted in flooding and property damage. Prior to that, in 1993, the Storm of the Century, also known as the '93 Superstorm, produced a storm surge of 12 feet that caused severe damage in the Horseshoe Beach area. Therefore, residents should be adequately prepared for the potential threats hurricanes may pose, including wind damage, heavy rainfall, flooding, and storm-surge threats.
