Florida is preparing for Hurricane Helene to make landfall, as the tropical storm strengthened as it makes its way towards the state.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said on Wednesday that 61 of 67 counties have declared a state of emergency to “help surge resources." He added “we are going to have a significant impact from this storm.”

“You can hide from the wind and there will be significant wind on this storm, but you got to run from the water. If you do have a major surge and you stay behind in that, especially if you're in one of these low lying areas, that is potentially hazardous,” the governor said.

Helene is expected to continue intensifying throughout the day and into Thursday, when it will likely bring life-threatening storm surge to much of Florida's coastline, according to forecasters.

More than 40 million people in Florida, Georgia and Alabama were under hurricane and tropical storm warnings, the National Weather Service has said.

How wonderful it is to live in Ontario, Canada, where the elements are in perfect balance. The two most important beings in this world are "Global Warming" & "Climate Change." It is vital to have them as friends.
