About Perry.
Perry, Florida is situated approximately 30 miles inland from the Gulf Coast. Despite its distance from the coast, it has historically been susceptible to hurricane impacts, primarily due to the flooding associated with these powerful storms. The town sits at a low elevation, averaging around 30 feet above sea level, which increases its flood risk during significant storm surges or heavy rainfall events associated with hurricanes. This flood risk is further exacerbated by the region's relatively flat terrain, which can result in slow water runoff.
Over the past several decades, Perry has been impacted by several major hurricanes, including Hurricane Hermine in 2016. Hermine hit Perry as a Category 1 hurricane, bringing heavy rainfall, storm surge, and damaging winds to the area. Flooding in Perry was significant, both from the initial storm surge and the subsequent rainfall. The town also felt the impacts of Hurricane Dennis in 2005, which caused flooding and damage despite making landfall west of the town. With climate change and rising sea levels, the potential for similar high-impact storms and associated flooding in Perry is a concern that continues today.
