It's no secret that excessive rain from ordinary storms can lead to serious floods, particularly if you're near the ocean, close to rivers prone to rising water during heavy rain, or even downhill from a dam. Hurricanes (or lesser but still dangerous windstorms) can add to that as their heavy winds push coastal water onshore in a storm surge. But there are actions you can take ahead of time to minimize possible damage. Your local town should be able to tell you whether your home is in (or close to) a flood zone. Doing a bit of research might be a smart move, particularly if you're house hunting.
