Terror in the USA from Hurricane Idalia – It reached Florida with 205 km/h (videos)

The hurricane is expected to produce destructive storm surges, creating waves nearly three meters high, along the Gulf Coast

Newsroom August 30 07:11

The US is shocked by the passage of Hurricane Idalia, since it leaves behind disasters, while the fact that the eastern states have not yet experienced its full extent is frightening.

Characteristic of the intensity of the phenomenon is that the hurricane reached Florida with a speed of 205 km/h.

The State of Florida has been declared a state of emergency and evacuation orders have been issued for entire areas since yesterday, 29/8.

Citizens are already bracing for Idalia to strike by barricading their homes and stockpiling supplies as rescue and search officials warn they may not be able to arrive in time to help.

Already more than 50,000 households are without power in Florida.
