Tropical Storm Midi has arrived in Florida

Tropical Storm Midi, which formed yesterday Wednesday in the Gulf of Mexico, reached above the ground on the island of St. Vincent, Florida, the American National Cyclone Center (NHC) informed on Wednesday night (early this morning) Thursday.

The storm was located about 15 kilometers west-southwest of the town of Apalatsikola, with gusts of up to 75 kilometers per hour.

Midi will cause heavy rainfall in Florida and neighboring Georgia, meteorologists warned.

«It is possible to face floods and tornadoes“, Said the emergency service in Florida, urging residents to closely monitor the announcements and warnings of the authorities in the coming hours.

Despite being nicknamed the Sunshine State, Florida is more prone to thunderstorms and cyclones.

But as ocean surface warming, extreme weather is becoming more intense, scientists warn, and the danger is growing, especially in coastal areas.
