About Lake Mack-Forest Hills.
Lake Mack-Forest Hills, Florida, is in close proximity to the east coast, which often results in hurricane threats. Situated at a low elevation of just 25 feet, the town is particularly susceptible to flooding during these meteorological events as storm surges or heavy rains can raise water levels significantly. Given the close distance from the Atlantic Ocean and the flat terrain of Florida, hurricanes can cause substantial damage not just from storm surge but also from strong winds, heavy rain, and tornadoes.
Over the last 30 years, there have been several significant hurricanes and floods that have impacted Lake Mack-Forest Hills. One of the most notable was Hurricane Irma in 2017, which brought heavy rains, tornadoes and damaging winds to the area causing significant impact. Moreover, in 1992, Hurricane Andrew, one of the most destructive Atlantic hurricanes in the recorded history, was felt in the area despite its main landfall in South Florida. As a general trend, it is expected that Lake Mack-Forest Hills will continue to face significant storm impacts due to its geographical location and elevation. Therefore, comprehensive hurricane preparation and efficient flood management systems are noteworthy elements for consideration.
