Story summary

Tropical Storm Isaias, forming off eastern Mexico on October 7, is expected to intensify into a Category 2 hurricane by October 10 and hit the US Gulf Coast between Louisiana and Florida's Panhandle. The storm prompted Florida Governor Ron DeSantis to declare a state of emergency for 25 counties. Meanwhile, meteorologists warned that Alabama's upcoming matchup with Georgia on October 7 could be affected; President Trump had planned to attend but now faces potential weather disruptions. Coastal areas from Louisiana to the Florida Panhandle are advised to prepare for dangerous winds, storm surge, and heavy rain that could last through the weekend.
