Helene’s Georgia Windstorm

Hurricane Helene will move inland unusually fast, meaning its destructive winds will penetrate especially far inland. This will bring 80 mph winds into much of southern/southeast Georgia. MyRadar meteorologist Matthew Cappucci has a quick Georgia update.

The highest inundation of greater than 10 ft is expected along the Florida Big Bend coast. Residents in those areas should follow advice given by local officials and evacuate if told to do so.

NOW is the time to prepare! Meteorologist Matthew Cappucci has everything you need to know about #Helene in 90 seconds:

#Helene has some organizing to do before strengthening⬇️

It has lopsided convection on its eastern side, which has been the case over the last few hours.

A growing tropical storm needs wrap-around convection enclosing an established core.
