About Tangerine.
Tangerine, Florida, though inland, is not entirely immune to the impacts of hurricanes. Its inland location might offer some protection from the initial storm surge associated with hurricanes; however, the subsequent heavy rainfall could pose a serious flood risk. Tangerine is relatively flat, lacking significant elevation that could mitigate flooding, which further aggravates this risk. Another consideration should be high-speed winds, which could cause substantial property damage, particularly to mobile homes and other less stable structures. It is also important to note that several major highways in and around Tangerine could complicate evacuation efforts during a storm.
Over the past 30 years, several significant hurricane events have impacted Tangerine. Notably, Hurricane Charley in 2004 struck a significant blow, causing flooding and wind damage. In 2017, Hurricane Irma also caused widespread damage due to its severe rainfall and resultant flooding. Despite the town's distance from the coast, these instances illustrate the importance of remaining vigilant and prepared for the potential impacts of hurricanes. It is recommended that residents be prepared to evacuate if needed, have a hurricane kit ready, and remain informed about weather predictions during hurricane season.
