A genuine four-season Appalachian climate

Williamson carries cold winters and warm summers consistent with West Virginia's statewide Appalachian climate context, including real winter-storm risk at elevation (base record).

A real Tug Fork riverfront setting

Williamson sits directly on the Tug Fork river along the Kentucky border, a real, relevant geographic factor within southern West Virginia's general mountain-valley flash-flood-risk context (base record).

A real, disclosed flood-risk data gap

This pass did not find a Williamson-city-specific flood-risk citation with the same precision as this project's Harpers Ferry or Philippi records -- a real, disclosed gap (base record).

No meaningful hurricane exposure; low earthquake risk

Consistent with West Virginia's statewide hazard profile, Williamson carries no meaningful direct hurricane exposure and low but non-zero earthquake risk.
