Bands of rain from Isaias soaked portions of Florida’s east coast and wind gusts of more than 70 mph were reported Sunday as the powerful tropical storm swirled just offshore, strengthening a bit but presenting less of a threat than initially feared.
As of 8 p.m. EDT, Isaias had maximum sustained winds of 70 mph and was located about 55 miles southeast of Cape Canaveral, Florida. It was crawling north-northwest at 9 mph.
Isaias is no longer forecast to regain hurricane strength, the National Hurricane Center said, meaning Florida will avoid the troubling scenario of grappling with the damage from a hurricane while in the midst of being pounded by the coronavirus pandemic.
