Hurricane Hermine will make landfall in Northern Florida tonight. Over the past few days, there have been model inconsistencies (very shocking, we know) regarding where the storm will head next. Even though the track is never set in stone, we can now zoom in on its immediate impacts on our area.

Below there are five zones, A is highest impact, E is slight impact. Here are a few more details.

ZONE A – This area will see significant impacts from Hurricane Hermine. Wind gusts of 40-60+ MPH are expected along with 2.5-5″ of rain. All elevations below 2 feet will see flooding (immediate coastal areas).

ZONE B – This area will see moderate impacts from Hurricane Hermine. Wind gusts of 30-50 MPH are expected along with 1.5-3″ of rain. A 50 mile shift of the track could make a large difference in this region.

Josh has been passionate about weather as long as his memory dates! From watching the Weather Channel at age 7, to making hand-drawn hurricane maps at age 11, starting his first weather site at 13, and founding PWA at 15 and forecasting for the state for the past 9 years, Josh's interest in weather has never dwindled! As difficult as it is, he greatly enjoys forecasting for Pennsylvania due to its countless microclimates. The state is an East Coast severe weather hotspot and nearly always home to the rain/snow line during winter storms!
