Severn shares the same warm-to-hot, humid summers and cold winters documented across Anne Arundel County and this dataset's other Chesapeake Bay-region Maryland markets.
A real, documented countywide flood history
Anne Arundel County's primary natural hazards include riverine and coastal flooding, hurricane winds, tornadoes, and winter storms -- the county recorded 266 flood-related events since 1996 per NOAA's Storm Events Database (86 flash floods, 91 river/area floods).
Somewhat inland of the Bay's open shoreline
Severn itself sits somewhat inland of the Chesapeake Bay's open shoreline and the tidal Severn River specifically, carrying more general Anne Arundel County flood-risk exposure than the direct waterfront tidal flooding documented for Maryland's Eastern Shore markets.
