Isaias is now a Category 3 hurricane with 120 mph sustained winds, sitting about 90 miles south of Pensacola. Landfall is expected tonight between 8 and 11 PM, most likely along the western Florida Panhandle, and it could still be at major hurricane strength when it comes ashore.
Evacuation orders are in effect for several counties across the Florida Panhandle and south Alabama. A Hurricane Warning runs from just east of Biloxi through Mobile and Pensacola to Panama City and Mexico Beach. If you are in one of those areas and have not left, the window is closing. Conditions are already deteriorating.
Along the coast, expect life-threatening storm surge, damaging winds, flash flooding, and the potential for tornadoes across southeast Mississippi, southwest Alabama, and northwest Florida tonight.
Isaias weakens once it moves inland, but Birmingham and Tuscaloosa are still in the track Saturday. Secure what is outside, charge your phones, and stay weather-aware overnight.
