on the Florida Panhandle and Big Bend. There is potential for life-threatening storm
surge and over 100 mph winds near the coast and inland. that could leave some areas without power for over a week.
- Michael is expected to make landfall along Florida's northeastern Gulf Coast Wednesday afternoon.
- A Category 4 or stronger hurricane has never made landfall in the Florida Panhandle.
- Catastrophic storm surge and destructive winds will occur near the landfall in the Florida Panhandle.
- Over a million power outages will occur not just near the coast, but also inland after landfall.
- Rainfall flooding is also a significant threat inland into the Carolinas.
