Story summary

Tropical Storm Isaias formed off the coast of eastern Mexico on Wednesday morning and was expected to strengthen into a hurricane before hitting the U.S. Gulf Coast by early Saturday. As of Thursday, it had maximum sustained winds of 75 mph, with heavy rains predicted across the central Gulf Coast from southern Alabama to Florida's Panhandle. The National Hurricane Center issued warnings for potential life-threatening impacts including storm surges and flash flooding. Governor Ron DeSantis declared a state of emergency in 25 counties in Florida, urging residents to prepare. Oil production cuts were also initiated as the storm approached offshore oil and gas facilities. Isaias could strengthen into a Category 3 hurricane by landfall, nearly tying the record for latest-forming first Atlantic hurricane set on October 8, 1905.
