About Flagler Estates.
Flagler Estates, located approximately 10 miles from Florida's east coast in St. Johns County, is in an area with a significant risk of hurricane impacts. The community's low elevation, with an average of about 20 feet above sea level, leads to higher potential flood risks - especially during major storm surges associated with hurricanes. Its proximity to the coast further increases the risk of hurricane impacts, as coastal areas often bear the highest winds and most significant storm surge impacts. Over the past several decades, the community has experienced a multitude of tropical storms and hurricanes, including the devastating effects of Hurricane Matthew in 2016 and Hurricane Dorian in 2019.
These historical precedents highlight the need for effective storm planning and preparedness in Flagler Estates. In addition to wind and water damage to homes and property, such storms often cause power outages and closures of roads and bridges, impacting residents' ability to evacuate or receive emergency services. Moreover, the extensive wetlands and lakes surrounding the area can also contribute to the risk of flooding. Heavy rainfall associated with hurricanes often leads to significant flood hazards. Historical records of floods in the last 30 years, including substantial events in 1994, 2008, and 2017, suggest floods may be a recurring issue for the community, particularly in hurricane conditions.
