Storm Surge Inundation Maps

The maps that may be downloaded below show projected hurricane storm surge flooding along coastal areas. The data used to create these maps come from the partially-completed Virginia Hurricane Evacuation Study, a joint effort by VDEM, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and coastal localities. Detailed information about a specific locality and whether a property is in a storm surge area can be obtained by contacting the emergency management office for that locality.
