Isaias makes landfall as strong Category 2 hurricane in Destin
- Hurricane Isaias, the first of the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season, is expected to make landfall along the northern Gulf Coast late Friday or early Saturday as a Category 2 hurricane.
- Marking the latest start to an Atlantic hurricane season since satellite tracking began in 1966, Isaias formed late on October 7, 2026, following months of unusual storm inactivity.
- With maximum sustained winds near 110 mph, the storm threatens the Florida Panhandle and Alabama with life-threatening storm surges of 6-10 feet and isolated rainfall totals reaching 15 inches.
- North Carolina officials have placed urban search and rescue teams on a state mission order in key locations to ensure readiness for potential flash flooding and severe weather through the weekend.
- Although the World Meteorological Organization did not retire the 2020 Hurricane Isaias name despite tens of millions in damage, the name was reused for this season's storm.
