Macomb, Michigan faces a relatively moderate overall natural disaster risk with a risk score of 94.75 and a risk rating of "Relatively Moderate." Specific climate factors such as thunderstorms, including lightning events with a frequency of 39.91% and a risk score of 90.64, contribute significantly to the hazard risk in the area. The county also experiences hail events with a frequency of 2.66% and a risk score of 79.48, indicating a relatively moderate risk level.
Geologically, Macomb County does not have significant coastal, volcanic, or seismic activity. However, the presence of water bodies like Lake St. Clair and the Clinton River, along with low-lying areas, may increase the risk of flooding events. The county's proximity to the Great Lakes and the prevalence of severe weather patterns in the region can also heighten the risk of wind-related events, with a frequency of 5.29% and a risk score of 99.33 for severe wind events.
While Macomb County does not have notable fault lines or mountain peaks, its geological features and climate factors contribute to its overall hazard risk profile. The area's history of severe thunderstorms, hail events, and flooding underscores the importance of preparedness and mitigation efforts to minimize the impact of natural disasters on the local population and infrastructure. The county's relatively high risk scores for wind events and thunderstorms highlight the need for proactive measures to address these specific hazards in the region.
