Florida is braced for the arrival of Hurricane Helene, forecast to be a powerful category-four storm when it smashes into the state’s panhandle. Officials issued dire warnings, pleading with residents in coastal areas along the hurricane’s path to evacuate ahead of catastrophic winds and a potentially deadly storm surge, the wall of seawater pushed on land by hurricane-force winds, that could rise to 6.1m in some spots.
Numerous evacuations were ordered along Florida’s Gulf Coast, including Sarasota and Charlotte counties, and dozens of counties have announced school closures, including Hillsborough and Pinellas counties. Pinellas County officials ordered evacuations of long-term healthcare facilities, including nursing homes, assisted living centres and hospitals near the coast. The county sits on a peninsula surrounded by Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.
