Innsbrook, Virginia, located approximately 100 miles inland from the Atlantic coast, has a moderate risk of being impacted by hurricanes and tropical storms. The key considerations in town's vulnerability include its elevation, which is approximately 289 feet above sea level, and its proximity to nearby water bodies such as man-made Innsbrook Lake and Lake Rooty. The region's relatively low-lying geography and the presence of these bodies of water could result in localized flooding due to heavy rainfall during a hurricane. Generally, it's not direct hurricane hits that can be a significant issue but the remnants of coastal hurricanes that can bring torrential rains, leading to flash flooding, particularly in low-lying or poorly drained areas. Historically, Innsbrook has experienced several hurricanes and subsequent flooding over the past 30 years, including Hurricane Floyd in 1999, Hurricane Isabel in 2003, and more recently, Hurricane Michael in 2018. While these storms lost much of their strength by the time they reached inland Virginia, their impact was still substantial in the form of heavy rainfall and strong winds. Notably, Hurricane Isabel caused significant power outages and property damage throughout the State. In terms of flooding, the event that had a remarkable impact was the flooding that occurred in the wake of Tropical Storm Gaston in 2004, which inundated areas of Richmond with up to a foot of rain. Therefore, residents should be always prepared for such events, even if the town's location and relative elevation reduces the likelihood of direct hits by major hurricanes.
