[Regnum] Hundreds of thousands of people were left without power after Hurricane Isaias struck the southern United States. The storm reached the Gulf of Mexico, ABC News reported.

On the morning of October 10, more than 726,000 residents of Florida and Alabama remained without power. The governors of these states had previously declared a state of emergency in response to the approaching hurricane. In Florida, it is active in 27 counties.

According to the television station, roads in Destin were flooded, and in neighboring Pensacola, police warned residents to stay off the streets due to debris scattered across the roads. The extent of the damage is still unknown, but many locals are posting photos of fallen trees and downed power lines on social media. Eyewitnesses also reported that the storm ripped the roof off a hotel in Pensacola.

The US National Hurricane Center reported that Isaias made landfall near Destin and is moving north at approximately 19 mph (31 km/h). Winds are reaching 105 mph (169 km/h), with gusts exceeding 125 mph (200 km/h). The hurricane previously reached Category 3 status with winds of 125 mph (193 km/h). As of the morning of October 10, the hurricane had reached Alabama.

4 Middle Tennessee just got an all day soaking rain - not even any wind to speak of. Was actually welcome due to drought conditions.
