Mathew Could Hit Florida Twice- Emma Lochabay

According to some forecast models, which help predict weather using supercomputers that input atmospheric data from around the world, the hurricane barreling towards the east coast of Florida causing lots of rain and wind, Hurricane Mathew, may take a u-turn and head back towards the east coast of the state. When it comes around the first time, it will be much more dangerous than the second. According to the latest projections, Mathew could hit as a category four as early as Friday. Because of this, authorities have been trying to get more than two million people to evacuate from the states of Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina. The further out from the actual weather event, the less accurate the forecast models will be, so it is hard to tell at this point the exact path Hurricane Mathew might take.

Before reading this article, I have heard of this catastrophic weather event on social media and on the news. This article was produced very recently which assures the most up-to-date news about Hurricane Mathew. Because of the time is was published, we do not know the exact path the storm will take but as more time passes, more articles will provide some more up-to-date news on details of the storm. This article has negative aspects as it is regarding a dangerous hurricane, but positive aspects as it is warning those who might not have known that it will be hitting twice, and therefore, potentially saving their lives. I have a close friend who lives on the southeast coast of Florida so this article is beneficial to me because it helps my understanding of what her and her family is going through and when.
