Calverton, Virginia is located about 70 miles inland from the Atlantic coastline and its elevation is approximately 310 feet above sea level. Although its inland location provides some protection from direct hurricane landfall, Calverton is not immune from the effects of these potent weather systems, particularly in terms of heavy rain and subsequent flooding concerns. Hurricanes and tropical storms can carry copious amounts of moisture far inland and leading to severe flooding, even days after making landfall. Calverton is located nearby rivers and creeks including the Rappahannock River, increasing the risk of flooding during heavy rains. Historical data reveals that this town has experienced a number of impactful storms over the past 30 years. In 2003, Hurricane Isabel caused remarkable damage in Virginia, although its direct effect was somewhat less profound in Calverton due to its distance from the coast. Moreover, Calverton and its surrounding regions suffered significant flooding during Hurricane Fran in 1996, which resulted in extensive property damage, landslide and widespread power outages. The area was also affected by the remnants of Hurricane Camille in the 1969 leading to one of the deadliest and costliest floods in the history of Virginia. These incidents are reminders that even though Calverton lies inland, vigilance and preparation for extreme weather events including hurricanes is always necessary.
