Florida residents urged to leave as Hurricane Idalia approaches
Idalia strengthens to a Category 2 system and could reach Category 3 as it hits Florida.
Israel National News

Florida residents living in vulnerable coastal areas were ordered to pack up and leave Tuesday as Hurricane Idalia gained steam in the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico as it makes it way towards the state. Idalia strengthened to a Category 2 system on Tuesday afternoon with winds of 100 mph. The hurricane was projected to come ashore early Wednesday as a Category 3 system with sustained winds of up to 120 mph in the lightly populated Big Bend region, where the Florida Panhandle curves into the peninsula.

Hope everything goes alright.

The name Idalia (of Italian origin) has the meaning/definition,
"behold the sun". It has some paganistic tones.
Wonder where some of these definitions for names come from...

Ecclesiastes 11:7
Truly the light is sweet , and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun :


Not reading anything into that, just thought it was interesting.

Strong Cat 3 now, could be a cat 4 when it hits the shore within the hour.

Praying those in the path of this monster storm have already evacuated and remain safe.

Floods in some places anyone know how deep Floods are likely to get, heard Florida residents say its not the winds to worry about, its the water.

Only one is hitting FL. From the Gulf.

The other is an older one Franklin, that will likely go north towards England/Iceland as it breaks down into a storm.

nhc.noaa.gov is the NOAA US Hurricane Center. News, forecast, maps, and satellite views are there.
