Weeks after Hurricane Debby swamped the Big Bend region, Florida’s Panhandle and west coast are bracing for another powerful storm.
Potential Tropical Cyclone Nine hasn’t become a named storm as of Tuesday morning, but meteorologists are warning residents along the northern and eastern Gulf Coast to prepare for the arrival of a hurricane later this week, with winds potentially up to 115 mph.
It’s too early to determine specific impacts, but the National Weather Service Tallahassee is warning residents to prepare for the potential of significant storm surge, heavy rain, strong winds and dangerous beach and boating conditions along the northern and eastern Gulf Coast.
