The National Hurricane Center forecasts Isaias to make landfall on the Gulf Coast tonight as a Category 2 hurricane, with gusts up to 198 km/h. A six-hour delay in wind shear could reduce weakening, increasing danger for the Florida Panhandle, southern Alabama, and southern Mississippi. The storm's exact intensity at landfall remains uncertain, but the threat of significant damage is elevated.
