Lamont, Florida, located around 30 miles from the coastline and with an average elevation of just 91 feet, is susceptible to direct impact from an approaching hurricane as well as indirect impacts such as wind and flood damage. Its low elevation, coupled with the proximity to coast, not only makes Lamont vulnerable to storm surge but also to heavy rain-induced flooding during a hurricane. Even tropical storms, or hurricanes that have made landfall and weakened, can still cause significant inland flooding. Moreover, this region is known for its heavy vegetation which could pose a risk of fallen trees and associated damage during a hurricane due to high winds. In terms of historical context, Lamont has experienced severe effects from major hurricanes over the past three decades. The most significant included Hurricane Hermine in 2016, which made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane, bringing heavy rains, damaging winds, and flooding to the region. Prior to that, Hurricane Kate in 1985 also severely impacted Lamont as a Category 2 hurricane, causing mass power outages and property damage. While flooding has occurred in the past during extreme weather events, the comprehensive flood history of Lamont is not extensive. However, the town's geographic features suggest it is well within the capability of experiencing significant flood events during a major storm. Therefore, inhabitants and relevant authorities should make adequate preparations and plans considering these factors.
