WeatherTiger breaks down Helene track, impacts in video forecast

Dr. Ryan Truchelut, of Tallahassee-based WeatherTiger, is tracking Helene ahead of what is forecast to be a catastrophic collision with Florida's Big Bend.

With about 48 hours before the storm makes landfall, Helene is expected to become a destructive Category 3 hurricane – or worse as it nears the Tallahassee area and Florida's Big Bend.

To discuss the threat, Truchelut went on Facebook pages throughout the USA TODAY NETWORK - Florida, including the Tallahassee Democrat , Panama City News-Herald , Gainesville Sun , Lakeland Ledger , Sarasota Herald-Tribune , Naples Daily News , Fort Myers News-Press , and the Northwest Florida Daily News .

He broke down the latest track and projected impacts for cities throughout Florida.
