#TeamIEM reminds those in the path of #HurricaneIdalia to stay vigilant, continue to listen to local officials, monitor the weather, and be safe as the hurricane made landfall earlier this morning. Strong winds will spread inland across portions of northern Florida and southern Georgia near the track of the center of #Idalia where Hurricane Warnings are in effect. A north-northeastward motion is expected through the morning, with Idalia's center forecast to move into southern Georgia later today. Idalia is forecast to turn toward the northeast and east-northeast, moving near or along the coasts of Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina late today and Thursday. 🔌 Residents in these areas should be prepared for long-duration power outages. 🌀 Damaging hurricane-force winds are likely in portions of eastern Georgia and southeastern South Carolina, where Hurricane Warnings are now in effect. 🌊 Areas of flash, urban, and moderate river flooding, with considerable impacts, are expected from the Florida Big Ben through, central Georgia and South Carolina, through eastern North Carolina into Thursday.
