Storm restoration in Clewiston
Clewiston, a city of about 7,300 on the southern shore of Lake Okeechobee in Hendry County, is known as the sweetest town in America for its surrounding sugarcane fields, but its weather exposure is anything but mild. With no coastline, surge is not the threat here, wind and water are: Hurricane Irma brought near-Category 2 gusts to the area in 2017, destroyed 42 homes, and left floodwater sitting on the flat terrain for more than a week, while Hurricane Ian in 2022 caused structural damage across more than 100 county properties. The area's low elevation and historically slow natural drainage mean that any landfalling Gulf storm tracking across Southwest Florida is likely to leave prolonged freshwater flooding behind. Storm Damage 911 connects Clewiston homeowners with vetted, licensed local contractors for a free damage assessment.

Local specialists for Clewiston storm damage
Hendry County is a fully inland county in south-central Florida, bordering Lake Okeechobee to the east and drained by the Caloosahatchee River. Its primary storm threats are sustained hurricane-force winds and prolonged inland flooding rather than coastal surge: Hurricane Irma (2017) produced Category 1 sustained winds and Category 2 gusts near LaBelle, destroyed 42 homes, and left widespread agricultural and residential flood damage that persisted for more than a week. Hurricane Ian (2022) struck with hurricane-force gusts in the western county around LaBelle and caused structural damage across 112 properties. The flat, low-lying terrain and historically poor natural drainage amplify rainfall accumulation after any landfalling Gulf storm tracking across Southwest Florida, making freshwater flooding the county's most persistent and damaging post-storm hazard.
