Stickleyville, Virginia, is situated at a significant distance from the coast which generally provides a buffer against the immediate devastation brought forth by hurricanes. However, its elevation and position at the heart of the state may put it at risk for resultant freshwater flooding. Depending on the severity and track of a storm, even though the strength of hurricanes tends to decrease as it moves further into inland regions, heavy precipitation can still pose a threat. If rainfall amounts are substantial, the risk for flash flooding, river flooding, and resultant landslides in sloped or mountainous areas could be heightened. Proximity to water bodies such as rivers or dams should also be taken into account as they may overflow under heavy rainfall. Over the past 30 years, Stickleyville has not experienced major hurricanes directly, but it has felt the aftermath of big storms including hurricanes Frances and Ivan in 2004. These caused heavy flooding in many parts of Virginia, and Stickleyville too experienced some flooding, though on a lesser scale. Historically, the threat of hurricanes directly hitting Stickleyville is low, but the town, like many others in Virginia can be subjected to secondary impacts from major hurricanes that hit the coastal regions. Therefore, preparing for potential flooding continues to be a sensible precaution for Stickleyville residents.
