Hurricane Isaías moves toward the strait between Bahamas and Florida

The projection cone denotes that Isaiah’s hurricane vortex could pass east of the Bimini Islands, 70 miles (112 kms) from Miami, on Saturday afternoon.

If the predicted route persists, Isaías could bring winds above 40 mph (64 km / h) to Miami, especially along the coast, as well as abundant rain.

Meanwhile, Boward’s north shoreline could feel winds in excess of 60 mph (96 km / h), as Isaiah dangerously approaches West Palm Beach, where he would graze the shoreline with hurricane force, before restarting his course northeast. attracted by the centrifugal force of high pressure.

Thus, a hurricane warning is in effect from Boca Raton to Volusia County, as well as a tropical storm warning south of Boca Raton to Cayo Largo, which includes Broward and Miami-Dade counties.

It is worth remembering that the centrifugal force of the high pressure found on the Atlantic Ocean, which drags the cyclone in the direction of its movement; makes it possible for the storm vortex to move following a curve, making it move away from the Florida coast.

Meteorologists insist that Isaías’s trajectory could change and that his passage through the eastern side of southern Florida depends on the presence of high pressure in the Atlantic and winds in the upper layers of the atmosphere that affect the stability of Storm.

Isaías, when it was still a tropical storm, unloaded torrential downpours on the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico, where material damage and lack of electricity were reported.
