World3 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported22m ago
Isaias weakened from a hurricane into a post-tropical cyclone early Saturday after making landfall along the northwestern coast of Florida. The storm lashed the United States Gulf Coast with heavy rain, strong winds, and a storm surge that battered local structures.
Following landfall, the storm moved inland across Alabama. Although it is no longer classified as a hurricane, severe weather threats—including flash flooding and the potential for tornadoes—persisted, leaving affected areas dealing with power outages and flooding.
