October 2024Flash FloodIndrio-The rainbands of Hurricane Milton produced very heavy rainfall rates over a 3-hour period, between 1400EST and 1700EST that resulted in substantial flooding in portions of northeast St. Lucie County. Rainfall totals from the system ranged between 2 to 4 inches in the western part of the county, to as much as 6 to 8 inches in the eastern part of the county. Several roads were made impassable due to standing water issues, up to 3 feet in some areas. The Treasure Coast International Airport recorded 4.46 inches of rain on Oct 9, a new daily record rainfall for the site. Damage to property and county infrastructure was minimal.
October 2016FloodIndrio-Rainbands associated with Hurricane Matthew produced rainfall totals between 3 and 4 inches, resulting in areas of mostly minor urban and poor drainage flooding. Several roadways were impacted by significant ponding.
August 2014Tornado (EF0)Indrio-A motorist near the intersection of Highway US-1 and Indrio Road in Fort Pierce observed a brief touchdown of a weak landspout/tornado that crossed US-1. No damage was reported and an examination of video relayed via social media suggests maximum winds were below 50 mph.
