About Pembroke.
Pembroke, Virginia, while situated inland, could still be significantly impacted by hurricanes, primarily due to associated heavy rainfall and consequent freshwater flooding. Pembroke's inland location means that it is typically shielded from the most powerful impacts of a hurricane that coastal cities face, such as storm surge and high wind speeds. However, its elevation and location within the New River Valley creates a potential for severe flooding when hit by heavy rains from decaying tropical systems.
Historically, the worst flooding events in Pembroke's history have coincided with major hurricanes. In 1985, Hurricane Juan caused significant flooding across southwestern Virginia, which included Pembroke. More recently, in 2004, remnants of Hurricane Frances and Hurricane Ivan caused widespread flooding and serious damage that again impacted Pembroke. Although its distance from the coast makes the town relatively safer, these historical events show that Pembroke is not immune to hurricane-induced floods. Therefore, emergency preparation, including ensuring there are ample evacuation routes and making residents aware of flood-prone areas, is necessary for potential future hurricane threats.
