Follow AP’s live coverage of Helene and the 2024 hurricane season.
CRAWFORDVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Hurricane Helene made landfall Thursday night in
northwestern Florida as a Category 4 storm as forecasters warned that the
enormous system could create a “nightmare” storm surge and bring dangerous winds
and rain across much of the southeastern U.S.
The National Hurricane Center in Miami said Helene roared ashore around 11:10
p.m. EDT near the mouth of the Aucilla River in the Big Bend area of Florida’s
Gulf Coast. It had maximum sustained winds estimated at 140 mph ( 225 kph). That
location was only about 20 miles northwest of where Hurricane Idalia came ashore
last year at nearly the same ferocity and caused widespread damage.
Helene prompted hurricane and flash flood warnings extending far beyond the
coast up into northern Georgia and western North Carolina. More than a million
homes and businesses were without power in Florida and more than 50,000 in
Georgia, according to the tracking site poweroutage.us. The governors of
Florida, Georgia, Alabama, the Carolinas and Virginia all declared emergencies
in their states.
One person was killed in Florida when a sign fell on their car and two people
were reported killed in a possible tornado in south Georgia as the storm
approached.
“When Floridians wake up tomorrow morning, we’re going to be waking up to a
state where very likely there’s been additional loss of life and certainly
there’s going to be loss of property,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said at a news
conference Thursday night.
The National Weather Service in Tallahassee had issued an “extreme wind warning”
for the Big Bend as the eyewall approached: “Treat this warning like a tornado
warning,” it said in a post on X. “Take shelter in the most interior room and
hunker down!”

browser like Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Internet Explorer 9 or later.
Even before landfall the storm’s wrath was felt widely, with sustained tropical
storm-force winds and hurricane-force gusts along Florida’s west coast. Water
lapped over a road in Siesta Key near Sarasota and covered some intersections in
St. Pete Beach. Lumber and other debris from a fire in Cedar Key a week ago
crashed ashore in the rising water.
Beyond Florida, up to 10 inches (25 centimeters) of rain had fallen in the North
Carolina mountains, with up to 14 inches (36 centimeters) more possible before
the deluge ends, setting the stage for flooding that forecasters warned could be
worse than anything seen in the past century.
Heavy rains began falling and winds were picking up earlier Thursday in
Valdosta, Georgia, near the Florida state line. The weather service said more
than a dozen Georgia counties could see hurricane-force winds exceeding 110 mph
(177 kph).
In south Georgia, two people were killed when a possible tornado struck a mobile
home on Thursday night, Wheeler County Sheriff Randy Rigdon told WMAZ-TV. The
damage was reported as heavy thunderstorms raked much of the state. Wheeler
County is about 70 miles (113 kilometers) southeast of Macon.
Forecaster Dylan Lusk said the National Weather Service issued a tornado warning
for Wheeler County at 8:47 p.m. on Thursday. He said it’s one of 12 tornado
warnings the office near Atlanta issued for parts of Georgia between 1 p.m. and
11 p.m.
The storm made landfall in the sparsely-populated Big Bend area, home to fishing
villages and vacation hideaways where Florida’s Panhandle and peninsula meet.
“Please write your name, birthday, and important information on your arm or leg
in a PERMANENT MARKER so that you can be identified and family notified,” the
sheriff’s office in mostly rural Taylor County warned those who chose not to
evacuate in a Facebook post, the dire advice similar to what other officials
have dolled out during past hurricanes.
Still, Philip Tooke, a commercial fisherman who took over the business his
father founded near the region’s Apalachee Bay, planned to ride out this storm
like he did during Hurricane Michael and the others – on his boat. “If I lose
that, I don’t have anything,” Tooke said. Michael, a Category 5 storm, all but
destroyed one town, fractured thousands of homes and businesses and caused some
$25 billion in damage when it struck the Florida Panhandle in 2018.
Many, though, were heeding the mandatory evacuation orders that stretched from
the Panhandle south along the Gulf Coast in low-lying areas around Tallahassee,
Gainesville, Cedar Key, Lake City, Tampa and Sarasota.
Among them was Sharonda Davis, one of several gathered at a Tallahassee shelter
worried their mobile homes wouldn’t withstand the winds. She said the
hurricane’s size is “scarier than anything because it’s the aftermath that we’re
going to have to face.”
Federal authorities were staging search-and-rescue teams as the weather service
forecast storm surges of up to 20 feet (6 meters) and warned they could be
particularly “catastrophic and unsurvivable” in Apalachee Bay.
“Please, please, please take any evacuation orders seriously!” the office said,
describing the surge scenario as “a nightmare.”
Preparing for a hurricane
Jaime Hernandez, the emergency management director for Hollywood, on Florida’s
Atlantic Coast, says his team encourages people to do three key things: make a
plan, have an emergency kit and stay informed.
Preparing for a hurricane also includes getting supplies in advance, including
nonperishable foods and water in case power is lost and supplies are low in the
community. Preparedness also includes ensuring all medical items and medications
are ready in case people are unable to leave their homes.
Emergency kit necessities
The rule of thumb is to have 1 gallon (3.8 liters) of water per day per person
for about seven days, Hernandez says. It’s also a good idea to have cash on hand
since ATMs may not be working.
Evacuating ahead of a storm
Officials advise residents listen to their local emergency management officials,
who will have the most updated information about evacuation zones.
These excerpts were originally published on July 2, 2024, in Hurricane season
2024 is here. Here’s how to stay prepared.
This stretch of Florida known as the Forgotten Coast has been largely spared by
the widespread condo development and commercialization that dominates so many of
Florida’s beach communities. The region is loved for its natural wonders — the
vast stretches of salt marshes, tidal pools and barrier islands.
“You live down here, you run the risk of losing everything to a bad storm,” said
Anthony Godwin, 20, who lives about a half-mile (800 meters) from the water in
the coastal town of Panacea, as he stopped for gas before heading west toward
his sister’s house in Pensacola.
School districts and multiple universities canceled classes. Airports in Tampa,
Tallahassee and Clearwater were closed Thursday, while cancellations were
widespread elsewhere in Florida and beyond.
While Helene will likely weaken as it moves inland, damaging winds and heavy
rain were expected to extend to the southern Appalachian Mountains, where
landslides were possible, forecasters said. The hurricane center warned that
much of the region could experience prolonged power outages and flooding.
Tennessee was among the states expected to get drenched.
Helene had swamped parts of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula on Wednesday, flooding
streets and toppling trees as it passed offshore and brushed the resort city of
Cancun. In western Cuba, Helene knocked out power to more than 200,000 homes and
businesses as it brushed past the island.
Areas 100 miles (160 kilometers) north of the Georgia-Florida line expected
hurricane conditions. The state opened its parks to evacuees and their pets,
including horses. Overnight curfews were imposed in many cities and counties in
south Georgia.
“This is one of the biggest storms we’ve ever had,” said Georgia Gov. Brian
Kemp.
Rain and wind are expected to increase Thursday along coastal Florida’s Big Bend
region as Hurricane Helene approaches
For Atlanta, Helene could be the worst strike on a major Southern inland city in
35 years, said University of Georgia meteorology professor Marshall Shepherd.
Helene is the eighth named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season, which began
June 1. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has predicted an
above-average Atlantic hurricane season this year because of record-warm ocean
temperatures.
In storm activity in the Pacific, former Hurricane John reformed Wednesday as a
tropical storm and strengthened Thursday back into a hurricane as it threatened
areas of Mexico’s western coast with flash flooding and mudslides. Mexico
President Andrés Manuel López Obrador raised John’s death toll to five as
communities along the country’s Pacific coast prepared for the storm to make a
second landfall.
