Hurricane Isaias made landfall on Florida's panhandle as a category 2 storm, killing at least four people — some from falling trees — and cutting power to roughly half a million customers across the Florida Panhandle and southern Alabama. The storm downed trees and flooded highways before weakening to a post-tropical cyclone as it moved north, bringing moderate to heavy rainfall to the central Appalachians and mid-Atlantic region with continued risk of flash flooding. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said no search-and-rescue requests had been received, calling it a sign residents heeded evacuation warnings, though hundreds of thousands remained without power and authorities continued monitoring flood risk as the storm's remnants pushed further inland.
