Bon Air, Virginia, while situated inland, is still susceptible to the impacts of hurricanes, particularly through the form of heavy rainfalls and wind. These meteorological events, even if Bon Air is not directly hit, can potentially lead to flash flooding, power outages, and property damage. The flood risk is exacerbated by the fact that parts of Bon Air are in close proximity to the James River. Due to its elevation, generally between 150-200 feet, the town also faces the threat of potential landslides resulting from heavy rain, providing an additional consideration during extreme weather events. Looking at historical hurricane impacts, Hurricane Isabel hit Virginia in 2003 and caused extensive wind damage and flooding in Bon Air due to heavy rains. More recently, remnants of Hurricane Michael in 2018 brought strong winds, rain, and tornadoes to parts of central Virginia, again impacting Bon Air. Flooding risks have also been evident historically, including significant events like the James River flood of 1985. Therefore, for Bon Air, the key hurricane threats integrate both rainfall-induced flooding and wind damage, coupled with an augmented risk of landslides due to its varying elevation. Overall, the town would benefit from a comprehensive preparedness plan for these threats during hurricane season.
