2024 Hurricane Season

Several counties have issued mandatory evacuation orders ahead of Helene’s anticipated landfall Thursday night. Leon County has also opened an additional risk shelter.

Helene is getting closer to the southern Gulf of Mexico with Tallahassee in its sights. It's expected to be a major hurricane when it makes landfall late Thursday.

Helene is expected to grow in size and strength before making landfall. Here is what you need to know to prepare for the system as it rapidly approaches Florida.

The governor says forecasters are calling for a major hurricane. But he says just how strong the storm gets could be determined by the path it takes.

Gov. Ron DeSantis has expanded his state of emergency. A system moving toward the Gulf of Mexico is now Tropical Storm Helene. It is expected to become a major hurricane.

Governor Ron DeSantis has declared a state of emergency in 41 Florida counties as the state prepares for the impacts of an incoming storm system.

Colorado State University researchers have released an update to their forecast, and it calls for up to 23 named storms this season instead of 25.

Debby barreled into the Panhandle Monday as a Category 1 hurricane, leaving widespread power outages in its wake. Officials are urging patience as crews work to turn the lights back on. Duke Energy hopes to restore power to residents in areas it considers hardest hit by 11:59 p.m. Wednesday. That includes customers in Jefferson, Taylor, Wakulla and Madison counties.

Debby will continue to bring storms with flash flooding possible Tuesday.

Gov. DeSantis said Sunday that Debby is likely to cause flooding as it brings more water than the stronger Hurricane Idalia, which followed a similar path last year.
