A big storm named Hurricane Isaias hit Florida on Friday evening. The storm brought very strong winds of 110 miles per hour and heavy rain. Officials ordered thousands of people near the coast to leave their homes to stay safe.
Weather experts warned of a dangerous storm surge. A storm surge happens when strong winds push ocean water onto the land, causing deep flooding. The storm also cut off electricity for nearly 500,000 homes and businesses.
Local residents prepared for the dangerous weather in different ways. One man put his chickens and ducks inside his bathroom to keep them safe. Many popular breakfast restaurants that almost never close during bad weather also shut their doors.
The storm is moving inland across neighboring states. It will slowly lose strength, but officials advise people to stay off flooded roads and remain indoors.
