Detailed Description
Location 4: Three homes were destroyed in South Ponte Vedra when waves and surge from Hurricane Irma eroded the dune face and scoured areas behind the seawall, undermining their foundations. Erosion is often more severe on sections of beach behind and adjacent to the end of a section of seawall. The predicted probability of dune erosion for this location was 99%.
