Hurricane Dorian

A category 5 Hurricane Dorian has strikes the Bahamas with 185 mph winds and gusts over 220 mph as the storm inched toward Florida's coast. Central Florida might be another destination where the Hurricane Dorian might strike. A hurricane watch was added for roughly 175-mile stretch of Florida's east coast. The NHC stated that. "This is tied for the strongest Atlantic hurricane landfall on record with the 1935 Labor Day". The storm in Bahamas ripped off roofs and also tore down  power lines in addition  other damage was caused by the hurricane. On the other hand, Central Florida is not projected to take a direct hit although, it could begin to see residual impact from the catastrophic storm. South Florida will experience showers and gusty winds. Schools begin to close as the Hurricane Dorian approaches. Residents of Florida must evacuate St. Johns County. There are roughly 148,500 residents in the St. Johns County under mandatory evacuation. "St. Johns County has issued mandatory evacuation orders for people in Zones A and B. These zones include the entire City of St. Augustine Beach and those living on waterfront properties or floor-prone areas. A mandatory  evacuation order has also been issued for people in Hastings and Flagler Estates".
