About Marshall.
Marshall, Virginia, situated approximately 110 miles west of the Atlantic coastline and at a higher elevation, typically experiences less severe impacts of hurricanes compared to coastal cities. However, this does not exempt it from potential threats, such as heavy rain, high-velocity wind gusts, and flooding associated with slow-moving or large-scale hurricanes. The most considerable hazard for the area is flooding, especially since Marshall is near various streams and creeks, making it susceptible to flash floods with heavy rainfall.
In terms of historical hurricane events, Marshall has encountered the residual effects of numerous hurricanes and tropical storms over the past three decades. Quite prominently, in 2003, Hurricane Isabel caused extensive power outages and downed trees across Fauquier County, including Marshall. The remnants of Hurricane Fran in 1996 also brought substantial rainfall to the area, resulting in some flood damage. Additionally, Marshall was significantly affected by the flooding event of June 1995, which although not due to a hurricane, nevertheless points to the amplified flood risk in the region during excessive rainfall episodes. Given these past impacts, it is crucial for the town to maintain readiness for potential hurricanes, notwithstanding its inland location.
