Delaware Water Damage Risk Profile
Primary threats: Coastal and tidal flooding, nor'easters, sea-level rise, heavy rainfall flash flooding.
Delaware has the lowest average elevation of any U.S. state, which makes flooding its most common weather hazard. Coastal communities face tidal flooding and storm surge from nor'easters and tropical systems, while rising sea levels are gradually increasing how often low-lying areas see water intrusion. Further inland, heavy rainfall can overwhelm drainage and cause flash flooding along creeks and low-lying roads, so the risk isn't limited to the immediate coastline.
