Does it ever flood?

I have only lived here for 2 years. Prior, I lived downtown.

In the event of a hurricane there could potentially be a storm surge and the water levels could rise high enough to flood. I sit on a nice piece of bedrock that protects my house. I honestly have more issues with the flooding at the storm drains when it rains so far than I have had with the river.

A massive hurricane hitting at high tide isn't that likely at all, but possible. The Sound offers some protection over the open ocean, but very low lying areas are definitely at risk if it happens.
