The storm poses significant risks to coastal and low-lying areas, with storm surges of 5 to 7 feet expected in some regions. Flooding is likely on roads, in neighbourhoods, and around underpasses, while creeks and drainage systems may struggle to handle the rainfall. Strong winds could lead to fallen trees, downed power lines, and extended power outages. Inland areas, including parts of Alabama, Georgia, and northern Florida, may experience wind gusts of 30 to 40 mph and isolated tornadoes. Hazardous beach conditions, including large waves and rip currents, are also anticipated.
