Hurricane Helene is forecast to make landfall along the Florida Big Bend on Thursday evening. It's also expected to impact major cities including Atlanta, Nashville and St. Louis.

Helene strengthened into a hurricane on Wednesday and is expected to strengthen further – potentially becoming a major hurricane – before making landfall over Florida on Thursday. Life-threatening storm surge, damaging winds, torrential rain, and flooding are possible.

It’s shaping up to be another sweet day across Southeast Michigan.

Tropical Storm Helene is nearing hurricane strength just offshore of the northeastern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula toward the Gulf of Mexico, according to the National Hurricane Center (NHC). It's expected to become a major hurricane (Category 3 or higher) before making landfall in Florida's Big Bend region on Thursday.

A much drier day is shaping up for the middle of your week.

Given Florida’s distinctive coastline, its topography makes it particularly vulnerable to storm surge flooding during hurricanes and other significant storm systems.
