Lee has intensified into a dangerous Category 5 hurricane in the Caribbean, the first storm to reach that strength in this year’s hurricane season.
Tropical storm Idalia has made its way through several states since it made landfall yesterday and has moved on to North Carolina after leaving a trail of collapsed homes, flooded streets, and felled trees.
Hurricane Idalia made landfall over Florida this morning as a high-end Category 3 storm with maximum sustained winds over 100 miles per hour.
