Marion County Storm and Claim History
- A confirmed EF-1 tornado tracked roughly 25 miles from Dunnellon to Ocala on March 12, 2022, with winds up to 110 mph over a path about 200 yards wide and 28 minutes long, according to the National Weather Service. Marion County commissioners were later told total damage estimates topped $15 million, including uprooted trees, a toppled billboard, and damaged homes and an apartment building on Ocala's north and east sides.
- Hurricane Irma in September 2017 knocked out power to large shares of Marion County, with Duke Energy reporting 90% of its Marion County customers out and Ocala Electric Utility reporting roughly 35,000 customers without power as the storm's outer bands swept across Central Florida.
- Hurricane Milton brought about 3 to 9 inches of rain across Marion County in October 2024, the National Weather Service in Jacksonville reports, with a high of 9.42 inches measured south of Ocala; falling trees destroyed a home near the Rainbow River and an RV at Wandering Oaks RV Park.
- Marion County was designated for FEMA Individual Assistance under the Hurricane Milton major disaster declaration (FEMA-4834-DR) on October 11, 2024.
