Sarasota County Storm and Claim History
- Hurricane Milton made landfall near Siesta Key on October 9, 2024, as a Category 3 storm. The National Weather Service's Tampa Bay event summary recorded a barometric pressure of 959.0 mb at a Sarasota station — the lowest pressure reading in its report — along with sustained winds of about 69 mph and gusts to 102 mph at Sarasota/Bradenton International Airport.
- Hurricane Ian in September 2022 largely spared Sarasota-Manatee from major storm surge compared to areas farther south, but still produced damaging winds and rain; in Sarasota County, 56,270 insurance claims were filed after Ian, according to Florida Office of Insurance Regulation data — the third-highest county total in the state.
- Hurricane Milton's landfall also triggered the largest single-day tornado outbreak in Florida history, with 45 confirmed tornadoes statewide on October 9, 2024, including an EF1 near El Jobean in neighboring Charlotte County that began as a waterspout.
- Tropical Storm Debby dropped 16.98 inches of rain at a Sarasota County gauge during August 3–5, 2024, and the National Weather Service in Tampa Bay reports totals of 15 to 20 inches in parts of Manatee and Sarasota counties, closing numerous roads and requiring water rescues.
- Sarasota County was among the counties designated for FEMA Individual Assistance under Hurricane Irma major disaster declaration FEMA-4337-DR, declared September 10, 2017.
- Average homeowners insurance premium in Sarasota County: $3,457 a year with wind coverage, $1,482 without; condominium unit owners $1,759 with wind, averaged across all insurers, insured values and deductibles (Florida OIR, Property Insurance Stability Report, July 1, 2026; data as of March 31, 2026).
