First Atlantic hurricane to reach US coast
Hurricane Idalia, the first of the Atlantic season in 2026, continues to intensify over the waters of the Gulf of Mexico, with winds reaching up to 120 km/h and a central pressure of 981 millibars. It is expected to approach the coasts of Louisiana, Michigan, Alabama, or Florida by the end of the week, with warnings of hurricanes, tropical storms, and rising sea levels. The impacts will include heavy rainfall, flooding, and thunderstorms, with a likelihood of localized floods. Meteorological forecasts also anticipate waves reaching up to 6 meters, increasing the risks of coastal inundation and marine erosion as the storm nears the American coastlines.
