Helene gradually picks up steam as it tracks towards the Florida Panhandle. Please heed the advice of local authorities and emergency management and evacuate if told to do so! This is a deadly storm surge of 15-20 feet, and you don't have a chance to survive it. So if in a storm surge warning area, evacuate!
As for here in South Florida, you can expect at times wind gusts in squalls of 40–50 mph. I am not seeing much moisture to our south at this time, but you can't rule out an isolated rain band with strong gusty winds tracking over South Florida. In fact, the EURO wind gust model shows a 40-52 mph wind gust by this afternoon and early evening, gradually decreasing after 11 p.m. So beware and be safe! You can't rule out a fast-dropping isolated tornado within the isolated rain bands.
We are still under a Tropical Storm Warning with winds from 39-56 mph and a Tornado Watch.
