Hurricane Idalia slams into Florida; Causes inundation, massive power outage | Oneindia News
Hurricane Idalia plowed into Florida’s Gulf Coast on Wednesday with howling winds, torrential rains and pounding surf, then weakened as it turned its fury on south-eastern Georgia, where floodwaters trapped some residents in their homes.
The powerful storm, which the National Hurricane Center (NHC) called "an unprecedented event", made landfall shortly after daybreak with 160mph gusts near Keaton Beach on Florida’s Gulf coast.
Idalia grew from a tropical storm into a hurricane early on Tuesday, a day after passing west of Cuba, where it damaged homes and flooded villages.
In Florida, it pushed inland a storm surge of up to 16ft, submerging small coastal communities and setting record high water levels across a wide area stretching 200 miles south to Tampa.

In a move likely to increase geopolitical tensions, four Russian ships, including a nuclear-powered submarine, are set to arrive in Havana next week. Cuban officials announced Thursday that the ships, arriving between June 12 and June 17, are part of historically friendly relations between the two nations and do not carry any nuclear weapons, aiming to assure that their presence poses no threat to the region.

12-year-old Bruhat from Tampa, Florida, won the Scripps National Spelling Bee on May 30.
During a lightning-round tiebreaker with Faizan Zaki, Bruhat correctly spelled
29 words in 90 seconds, AP reports. .
Bruhat received a trophy and
over $50,000 in cash and prizes.
I was pretty confident that I had
a chance at winning because I’ve
been working so hard. And I really
wanted to win. That’s why I
practiced the spell-off so much, Bruhat Soma, via statement.
The word that Bruhat won the
competition with was "abseil.".
It means "descent in mountaineering by means
of a rope looped over a projection above.".
The finals only had eight spellers competing, the fewest since 2010, AP reports. .
Some critics were upset that the two spellers were subjected to a "spell-off" instead of being given the chance to compete in a conventional round.
I do wish that we would
have gotten to see more
of a duel between them, Charlotte Walsh, 2023 Spelling Bee runner-up.
I definitely think they should have been
given an opportunity to have some
conventional spelling rounds before
they defaulted to the spell-off, Scott Remer, one of four coaches who worked with Faizan, via statement
