Greenbush, Virginia is located around 15 miles inland from the Atlantic coast, which makes the town susceptible to potential hurricane threats, primarily from hurricanes that make landfall on the Virginia coast. Due to its relatively low-lying topography, with an average elevation of just 39 feet above sea level, there are noteworthy concerns about potential flooding. In fact, much of the town lies within a designated floodplain, making it especially vulnerable to hurricane-induced storm surges and heavy rainfall. Thus, considerations should be taken into account regarding infrastructure stability, road accessibility during storm periods and contingency plans during high risk flood periods. Looking at the past 30 years, Greenbush has indeed experienced significant impacts from major weather events. Notably, Hurricane Isabel in 2003, Hurricane Ernesto in 2006, and Hurricane Sandy in 2012 brought severe weather and flooding to the area, causing extensive damage and loss of services. These events should serve as reminders of the town's vulnerability and the necessity to prepare for such threats.
