Hurricane Michael made landfall on Wednesday afternoon.

An extreme wind warning has been issued until 2:15 p.m. EDT for southern Jackson, Gulf, Bay, Calhoun, Liberty and southeastern Washington counties where winds in excess of 130 mph are moving onshore. This is an extremely dangerous and life-threatening situation. Treat this warning as if a tornado was approaching and move immediately to the safe room in your shelter, advises the National Weather Service 

Michael is currently centered about 5 miles northwest of Mexico Beach, Florida, and about 20 miles southeast of Panama City and is moving north-northeastward. Its central pressure continued to drop and maximum sustained winds continued to increase up to landfall, according to aircraft reconnaissance data.
