Hurricane Florence is in Carolina, but some of her swells made it to Cape Cod. We went to Wellfleet, Eastham and Chatham to see what was what.

Hurricane Inundation Maps: Orleans



The maps are a bit blurry, because they download poorly and we were forced to take pictures of the monitor.

They work like this...

Any area that is colored in means that inundation is possible during a hurricane. FEMA estimates as to what hurricane intensity would be needed to flood certain spots are shown by color differencs.

Light green = Category 1

Dark green = Category 2

Yellow = Category 3

Red = Category 4
