About Windermere.
Windermere, Florida, situated inland near Orlando, can potentially still be significantly impacted by hurricanes. Despite being far from the immediate coast and thus spared from the devastating storm surge, Windermere could still be vulnerable to heavy rainfall, gusty winds, and tornadoes that hurricanes often spawn. The town's elevation varies from 85 to 111 feet, which reduces the threat from flooding as the water tends to drain off rather than accumulate. However, any influx of water from nearby lakes during severe storms or hurricanes could pose a significant flood risk.
Historically, Windermere has borne rather significant indirect impacts from hurricanes and tropical storms. The major hurricanes that have impacted this town over the past 30 years include the 2004 hurricane season trio; Charley, Frances and Jeanne, which caused widespread wind damage and flooding in Orange County. Also, Hurricane Irma in 2017 caused large-scale power outages and flooding. Flood risk in Windermere is variable, with some regions facing a higher risk due to the proximity to the Butler Chain of Lakes. Therefore, during intense hurricanes, residents should be prepared for possible widespread wind damage, temporary loss of utilities, and intermittent flooding, especially around the lake regions.
