About Lely Resort.
Lely Resort, Florida, is in close proximity to the southwestern coast, placing it directly in the path of potential hurricanes that traverse the Gulf of Mexico. This region of Florida is quite flat with a low elevation, which increases vulnerability to storm surges, flooding, and wind damage from hurricanes. Considering historical flood risk, Lely Resort is highly susceptible as it falls within an area categorized as Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). You should also consider that the area has substantial property and human settlements, which are potential targets for storm impacts. Over the last 30 years, Lely Resort has experienced its fair share of hurricane effects. Major hurricanes such as Hurricane Andrew in 1992, Hurricane Wilma in 2005, Hurricane Irma in 2017 have had significant impacts on the community. Particularly, Hurricane Irma in 2017, passed close to Lely Resort, causing significant flooding and destruction in an already flood-prone area. With climate change, these types of disasters could potentially be more frequent and more severe. It is essential for Lely Resort's residents to pay attention to meteorological updates and have a clear, timely evacuation plan during the hurricane season.
