Since the 17th century, XX Atlantic hurricanes have affected the U.S. state of Virginia, some of which were costly or deadly.

In 1607, the London Company founded Jamestown as the first permanent English settlement in the United States. Accounts from indigenous people and the abandoned Roanoke Colony suggested storms in the 16th century. Recordkeeping of significant storms improved with ship logs and newspapers. The National Weather Service set up continuous daily weather records from Norfolk beginning in 1871. ^{[1] [2] [3]}

• 1649 – High winds and tides destroyed tobacco when a storm passed the region. ^[2]
• September 6, 1667 – The Dreadful Hurricane of 1667, as described by weather historians, produced high winds and a 12 ft (3.7 m) storm surge that destroyed more than 10,000 houses. The storm wrecked crops such as tobacco and corn, and swept away cattle, with flooding lasting for 12 days. The death toll was unknown; a letter by Secretary Thomas Ludwill wrote about "the drowning of many people who lived not in sight of the rivers". ^[2]
• October 29, 1693 – A powerful storm created new inlets along the coast. ^[2]

• August 20, 1969 – Former Hurricane Camille entered the western portion of the state as a tropical depression and moved across the state. Enhanced by an approaching cold front, Camille dropped torrential rainfall along the Blue Ridge Mountains, including 27.0 in (690 mm) of rain in just eight hours in Nelson County. This made it the wettest known tropical cyclone in the state. The rains caused flash flooding that killed 153 people and left US$140 million in damage. Camille wrecked or damaged 2,598 houses in the state. ^{[4] [5] [6] [7]}
