The US is getting ready for yet another strong storm in September. This time, Hurricane Helene is the big story, and experts are saying that it could have a very bad effect. Helene is a category four hurricane according to the National Hurricane Centre. Because it is expected to hit land in Florida, the whole state is on high alert.
People who live in the Sunshine State are used to storms being very damaging, and Helene looks like it will be one of the worst. The storm surge could be as high as 20 feet along some coasts. Cities like Miami are likely to be hit the hardest. Because of how bad the damage is, experts have said that the storm is “unsurvivable,” which is a stark warning that shows how bad things are.
The National Hurricane Centre is keeping a close eye on Helene as people in Florida get ready for the worst. The storm is due to hit land later this week, so people are running out of time to get their homes ready and move to safer places. It will be important to see how bad the damage is in the coming days, but one thing is for sure: Hurricane Helene is a powerful storm.
