Helene has strengthened into a hurricane and is forecasted to become a major hurricane before making landfall on Thursday evening. We will begin feeling its effects well in advance, with the most significant impact expected east of the eye wall.
- Surge/Wind: Prepare for 10 to 15 feet of storm surge and significant inland wind damage.
- Rainfall: Showers today aren’t directly from Helene, but heavy rain and flash flooding are expected Thursday/Friday.
- Tornadoes: Tornado risks will increase Thursday as outer bands arrive.
Talquin is closely monitoring the storm and preparing to respond to any impacts. Stay safe and stay tuned for updates!
