approaching as Category 3.0:13It landed as Category 2.0:15More than 600,000 electricity customers across the Southeast were still without0:20power late Saturday.0:21At least four people have died, and Sunday brings another threat of damaging storms.0:25Can households regain reliable electricity and warning systems before those storms0:30arrive?0:30Florida carried the largest listed outage total in that late Saturday snapshot.0:35Across the region, families were waiting for electricity while crews faced fallen0:39trees, blocked roads, and damaged communications infrastructure.0:43Santa Rosa County emergency officials said most county roads were impassable0:47Saturday because of trees or power lines.0:49In Alabama's Monroe County, officials described severe damage to communications and0:53electricity infrastructure, with building repairs expected to take days.0:58Florida had more than 408,000 customers out, and Alabama had 153,000.1:04North Carolina had more than 8,000, mostly in the west.1:07Other affected states also contributed to the regional total.1:10A later Saturday night update put Alabama's remaining outages above 100,000.1:15Barber County also had more than 7,000 customers lose power during the overnight1:20storms.1:20That county figure describes the storm's impact.1:23Without saying how many connections were still out afterward, about 780,0001:27customers were out late Saturday morning in Florida, Alabama, and Georgia.1:31An afternoon regional snapshot put outages around 843,000.1:35The later total exceeded 600,000, but changing coverage and observation times1:39prevent a reliable repair rate calculation.1:42The peak has been described as about 840,000 customers, even though an earlier count1:47approached 900,000 a separate million-plus estimate counted people.1:51Electricity connections and people can't be compared as if they're the same measure.1:55Florida officials put about 16,000 utility workers on restoration duty Saturday1:59morning.1:59Around 5,000 National Guard personnel were also deployed.2:03Earlier standby and preparation counts covered different groups and times.2:06so they can't be added into one workforce.2:09There isn't a complete timetable for restoring service.2:12Search and rescue teams remained available.2:14Because saturated areas of north central Florida could still need water rescues, the2:18loss of electricity has also created a deadly hazard inside homes.2:22Two people died in Florida's Escambia County, one beneath a fallen tree and another2:28from generator exhaust.2:29Alabama's deaths involved a tree falling on a Birmingham home and a Barber County2:34driver's wreck involving fallen trees.2:36The Escambia County woman was inside her home when the tree fell late Friday.2:41Her husband, Joey Williams, said he was trapped but escaped while she couldn't.2:44A relative said his legs were crushed.2:47In the separate generator incident, four other family members were hospitalized with2:50non-life-threatening carbon monoxide poisoning.2:53The generator had run in a closed or unventilated garage, never operate a generator2:58indoors or in a garage.2:59Its exhaust can kill even after hurricane winds have passed, and a power outage3:03doesn't make that setup safe.3:05The early confirmed minimum was two deaths.3:07It later rose to at least four as separate cases were included.3:11The Birmingham and Pensacola descriptions overlap with those same victims.3:15Four remains a minimum rather than a final toll.3:18The Barber County driver was taken to a medical facility in Dale County and later3:22pronounced dead.3:23The Birmingham death occurred after a tree hit a single-family home in the Huffman3:28area.3:28Differing overnight times describe that same incident.3:31Isaiah came ashore near Destin around 8:30 p.m.3:34Central on Friday, October 9th, with sustained winds of 105 miles an hour.3:39It weakened before crossing the coast, after the earlier Category 3 approach.3:44By 4 Saturday morning, Isaias was post-tropical with 35 mile-an-hour winds near3:49Montgomery.3:50Six hours later, its center was 50 miles south of Birmingham, still at 35 miles an3:55hour.3:56Those positions describe Saturday's storm.3:58The Weather Prediction Center continued issuing bulletins after the Hurricane4:02Center's morning update.4:03Its Saturday bulletin showed movement north-northwest at 10 miles an hour.4:07The earlier bulletin showed movement north at 14.4:10The inland rain and severe weather threat continued as the storm weakened.4:14Reported gusts reached 116 miles an hour in the Santa Rosa area, 114 in4:20Milton, 102 in Pensacola, and 97 in Gulf Breeze.4:24These short bursts differ from the hurricane's sustained wind measurement.4:28Pensacola's 102 mile an hour reading was identified at City Hall.4:32The precise instrument behind the Santa Rosa reading hasn't been identified.4:36Before landfall, Orange Beach recorded a 72 mile an hour gust, and a buoy off4:40Pensacola recorded 69.4:42Bruton, Alabama also had reported 70 mile-an-hour gusts and downed trees and lines.4:47Coastal water height estimates range from about five feet to a claim of up to nine4:51feet.4:52Nobody has provided an official measurement identifying where and when that4:56nine-foot height occurred with a common reference level for comparison.4:59Water above normal sea level, water above the predicted tide, and flooding depth on5:03dry ground measure different things.5:05More than five feet was reported around Pensacola and Panama City.5:09With another Panama City estimate of five and a half feet, a final coastwide maximum5:13remains unresolved.5:14St.5:14Petersburg had coastal flooding around midnight into Saturday, far from the destined5:19landfall.5:20A storm chaser identified as Naveen estimated two to three feet of surge and5:24described water covering a beach and waves overtopping a jetty.5:27He separately described tides one to three feet above normal high tide.5:31Those heights are local estimates.5:33Panhandle damage also included a gas station in the Santa Rosa area and fallen trees5:37in Milton.5:38Rosemary Beach residents described flooding, debris, and lost roof shingles.5:43Rainfall accounts described localized totals around a foot or more, but a final5:47landfall rainfall inventory isn't available.5:49Pensacola International Airport remained closed to commercial traffic for5:53inspections Saturday.5:54Destined Fort Walton Beach Airport reopened, but severe delays continued and most5:59departing flights were canceled.6:00American, Delta and United offered travel waivers.6:04I-10 and U.S.6:05Route 98 were reported open Saturday morning, while local roads remained obstructed.6:09National Guard soldiers swam to a submerged truck and pulled its occupants to6:13safety.6:14Debris can conceal downed electricity lines, and nearby homes losing power doesn't6:18mean those lines are safe.6:20Tropical warnings ended Friday night in lower Plaque Mines and southern Harrison.6:24By 10:15 p.m.6:25Central, all tropical watches and warnings in the New Orleans weather office's area6:29were canceled.6:30Coastal flood advisories continued overnight in parts of that area.6:34Plaque Mines Parish lifted its limited voluntary evacuation for businesses around6:38Venice's Tidewater Road on Saturday.6:40The Empire Floodgate and River Sector Gate reopened to marine traffic.6:44Earlier shelter instructions, bridge closures, and evacuation orders concerned the6:47coastal crossing.6:48Sunday restrictions depend on local updates.6:51Offshore operators had shut in 68.76% of Gulf oil production by late Saturday6:56morning and 57.44% of gas production.7:00Workers had evacuated 113 of 371 staffed platforms and 8 of 11 drilling rigs.7:05The oil interruption amounted to about 1.4 million barrels each day.7:10Friday's shutdown figures were higher, with 71.51% of oil and 58.84% of gas7:15production shut in, and 129 platforms evacuated.7:19Shell began sending personnel back Saturday while damage inspections and facility7:23restart requirements still lay ahead.7:24The Energy Department authorized up to 4 million barrels from the Strategic7:28Petroleum Reserve.7:29The authorization allows up to 2 million each for ExxonMobil and BP America.7:34They must return borrowed oil with extra barrels in 2027.7:38The department says the exchange aims to keep refineries operating and limit supply7:42disruption.7:43Actual delivery volumes haven't been announced.7:46Offshore production recovery, like electricity restoration on land, still depends on7:50inspections and repairs.7:52Sunday afternoon could bring a few tornadoes and damaging gusts to portions of North7:56Carolina, Virginia, and Southeast Maryland.7:59The Saturday-issued Storm Prediction Center Outlook places parts of those areas in a8:04slight risk for severe storms.8:06Stronger thunderstorms are forecast locally from noon to six Sunday.8:09with an elevated level two risk beginning around late morning or midday.8:13Residents need a functioning way to receive warnings, especially where electricity8:16and communications are still disrupted.8:18Parts of Georgia and the Carolinas could receive three to six inches of rain locally8:22up to ten.8:23The Mid-Atlantic and Northeast forecast calls for one to three inches, with8:27localized totals above five, where storms repeatedly cross an area.8:31Central North Carolina's Saturday morning forecast called for one to two inches.8:35Locally higher focus over the triad and southern coastal plain.8:39That briefing put the overall flash flood threat low with isolated flooding8:42possible.8:43Mountain and foothill forecasts emphasize greater flash flood concerns.8:47Saturday's wind alerts reached roughly 22 million people from Louisiana to8:52Pennsylvania.8:53Flood watches and warnings covered about 10 million from Florida to southern8:57Virginia.8:57Those groups overlap.8:59And the figures describe Saturday's alerts.9:01Weekend gusts could reach 60 miles an hour in some areas.9:05The hurricane has weakened, but power restoration has no complete timetable.9:09And Sunday's forecast adds possible tornadoes and damaging thunderstorms.9:13The dated severe weather outlook runs through Monday morning.Читати статтюХронологія історіїHeyDexКоротке відео ↗Хто що повідомивПункти, про які повідомило більше ніж одне видання✓Storm-surge forecasts along the coastНезалежно підтверджено · 11
