Belmont Estates, located inland within the commonwealth of Virginia, does not directly face the threat of storm surges that coastal regions confront during a hurricane. However, the town is not entirely safe from hurricane-related damages. Situated at a moderate elevation, heavy and relentless rainfall could potentially lead to flash floods, even though the town is not typically known for significant flood risks. The largely residential area faces possible risks like property damage from fierce winds, downed trees and powerlines, and scattered debris during significant hurricane events. Historical hurricane data over the last three decades for Belmont Estates shows the impact of several tropical storms and lower category hurricanes. The town saw substantial rainfall and wind damage associated with Hurricane Fran in 1996 and Hurricane Isabel in 2003. Moreover, remnants of hurricanes like Floyd in 1999 and more recently, Michael in 2018 have also caused power outages and property damage. However, these events have been localized and did not lead to widespread or long-lasting damage. Nonetheless, residents should remain vigilant during hurricane season, given the trends in increasing storm intensity and the potential for flooding, especially in lower-lying areas of the town.
