Helene Takes Aim At Northern Florida

Hurricane Helene is taking aim at Northern Florida with a life-threatening landfall expected later tonight.

It's now a Category 2 storm with 105 mile-per-hour winds, according to the latest update from the National Hurricane Center. Forecasters say Helene will bring life-threatening storm surge, damaging winds and flooding rains as it heads toward the Big Bend.

Minimal impact is expected from Helene to our area, according to the National Weather Service office in Slidell.

Helene is starting to force postponements and closures of events and businesses in the Southeast.

Walt Disney World announced it is currently operating under normal conditions, but some attractions and entertainment will be closed and canceled.

In the sports world, Major League Baseball's final week of play is being impacted as the Atlanta Braves were forced to postpone last night's and today's games against the New York Mets.
