About Daytona Beach.
Daytona Beach, given its coastal location on the eastern coast of Florida, is highly susceptible to the direct impact of hurricanes and tropical storms. Therefore, its potential storm impacts are severe and broad in scope. The city sits at a low elevation, primarily at or near sea level, which greatly increases its flood risk during storm surges, high tides, and heavy rainfall events. Not only does this flood risk threaten property and infrastructure but it also carries with it the potential for significant loss of life if not appropriately prepared for. Beyond the risk of flooding, the city faces other potential hurricane impacts, such as strong winds capable of causing significant structural damage, power outages, and endangering lives.
Historically, Daytona Beach has experienced various major hurricanes and tropical storms. Notably, in the past 30 years, it was significantly affected by hurricanes like Hurricane Charley in 2004, which caused widespread destruction, and more recently, Hurricane Matthew in 2016 and Hurricane Irma in 2017, both of which resulted in broad flooding and wind damage. Hurricane Dorian in 2019 also posed a serious threat, although its direct impact was less severe than anticipated. These events underscore Daytona Beach's vulnerability and show the necessity for diligent storm preparation and robust mitigation strategies. Over time, sea levels are expected to rise due to climate change, which could exacerbate flood risks in the area.
