00:00 Tropical Storm Edalia, which formed in the Caribbean Sea on Sunday, is expected to threaten
00:06 Florida in the coming days as it strengthens into a hurricane.
00:10 Florida Governor Ron DeSantis warned residents along the Gulf Coast to stay vigilant as Edalia's
00:16 winds ramp up.
00:17 It will become a hurricane by late Tuesday afternoon.
00:22 Landfall is currently expected along the Big Bend region on Wednesday, and it could arrive
00:28 at the state of Florida as strong as a Category 2 hurricane.
00:33 The U.S. National Hurricane Center said on Sunday that the storm is currently near the
00:38 Yucatan Channel, about 80 miles northeast of Cozumel, Mexico.
00:42 Jamie Roem, Deputy Director at the National Hurricane Center, urged residents in states
00:47 north of Florida to be alert.
00:50 After it moves over northern Florida, it moves up into the southeast United States or along
00:56 the coast.
00:57 You really have to watch, you in Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, really have
01:01 to pay attention.
01:02 If it's a little bit farther inland, maybe weaker, a little bit farther offshore, maybe
01:07 a little stronger.
01:08 Edalia could cause life-threatening storm surge and flooding from heavy rains along
01:13 parts of Florida's west coast and the Penn Handle as early as Tuesday, the Miami-based
01:18 weather forecaster said.
