‘Nightmare’ Hurricane Helene Shuts Florida and Georgia Schools With Millions at Risk
Hurricane Helene could be “catastrophic” to Floridians on Thursday as winds reaching 156 miles per hour forces U.S. schools to shut and could lead to billions of dollars in damage.
The National Hurricane Center officers are saying that over 40 million people in Florida, Georgia and several other U.S. states are under threat as forecasters predict it will be a Category 4 storm—the second highest category.
It is likely to hit large parts of Florida on Thursday, entering through the Big Bend area on the northwestern coast of Florida.
