At least two people died in storm-related incidents as Hurricane Isaias battered Florida’s Panhandle and Alabama, leaving widespread damage and hundreds of thousands of power customers in the dark. The storm made landfall near Destin around 8:30 p.m. Friday as a Category 2 hurricane, with sustained winds of 105 mph, according to the National Hurricane Center. It weakened to a post-tropical storm after moving inland, but officials said flooding and severe weather threats remained. In Escambia County, Florida, a rescue team found a person pinned beneath a large tree shortly before 9 p.m. Friday, said sheriff’s office Sgt. Melony Peterson. “The victim was inside the home when the tree collapsed,” Peterson said. A second storm-related death was reported overnight in Jefferson County, Alabama, which includes Birmingham. Emergency management director Jim Coker said a tree fell on a single-family home. By 11:50 a.m. Saturday, about 780,000 power customers in Florida, Alabama and Georgia were without electricity, down from nearly 900,000 earlier in the morning, according to Poweroutage.us. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said more than 80% of residents in Santa Rosa, Holmes, Washington and Walton counties lacked power. About 16,000 utility workers were working to restore service, he said. Crews also worked to clear trees from roads. DeSantis said Interstate 10, U.S. Route 98 and all state bridges were open Saturday morning. In Jefferson County, emergency officials reported downed trees and power lines and urged residents to avoid unnecessary travel while crews worked. Isaias pushed a storm surge of about 5 feet ashore, below forecasts of 6 to 9 feet if the storm arrived at peak high tide. Forecasters continued to warn of flash flooding farther inland and possible tornadoes as the system moved north. Strong thunderstorms were crossing central Georgia Saturday morning.
