Dorian gains strength as Florida braces for hit
Hurricane Dorian was expected to strengthen into a dangerous Category 3 storm yesterday with winds of at least 111 mph (178 km/h) as it heads towards Florida’s Atlantic coast. Dorian is forecast to swell later into a powerful Category 4 storm with violent winds topping 130 mph (210 km/h) before it makes landfall on Labor Day. The entire state of Florida is under a declaration of emergency and Governor Ron DeSantis activated 2,500 National Guard troops with another 1,500 on standby.
