"Thousands Evacuate As Storm Alberto Powers Toward Florida"

"Subtropical Storm Alberto is expected to slam into the Florida Panhandle about mid-afternoon Monday, and wallop parts of the southeastern United States with drenching rains, blasting winds and possible tornadoes, officials said.

Forecasters said it could bring life-threatening inundation to Southern coastal states.

“It’s maintained its strength and wind speeds overnight, and it looks like it’s headed for landfall at Panama City, (Florida),” said David Roth, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service’s Weather Prediction Center in College Park, Maryland."

John Herskovitz and Rich McKay report for Reuters May 27, 2018.
