SUMMARY: Hurricane Helen is currently a Category 1 storm in the of Mexico, with winds reaching 345 miles from its center. It is expected to intensify to Category 2 and potentially Category 3 or 4 as it approaches Tallahassee this evening, moving quickly towards Atlanta. Significant storm surges are predicted, with up to 20 feet near the Big Bend area and 5 to 8 feet for Tampa. Almost all of Florida, Georgia, and parts of South Carolina are under tropical storm or hurricane warnings. Major risks are developing in the Florida Panhandle and North Georgia mountains due to anticipated heavy rainfall.

Hurricane Helene is strengthening this morning over the eastern Gulf. The storm is still on track to make landfall along the Big Bend of FL as a major hurricane with winds over 115 mph and storm surge up to 20 feet!

The storm is sitting over very warm temperatures and low wind shear. This will allow the storms to continue strengthening for the rest of the day. The big question remains how much can it grow. The storm is large with tropical storm force winds extending over 345 miles away from the center. The center has remained broad as well. If the core of the storm can contract some we will likely see the storm rapidly intensify Thursday afternoon. Either way the storms will likely be a category 3 at landfall, but a category 4 is still not impossible.
