Hurricane Isaias Kills Four and Leaves 630,000 Without Power as It Weakens
Hurricane Isaias, the first Atlantic hurricane of the 2026 season, has weakened to a post-tropical cyclone after making landfall in Florida. At least four people have died, and approximately 630,000 customers remain without power across the US South. The storm has caused widespread tree damage, flooding, and supply disruptions, prompting federal emergency declarations and an emergency release of crude oil from the strategic petroleum reserve.
