Hurricane Idalia

Idalia was a category 1 storm over the Gulf of Mexico with sustained winds of 140 kilometres (85 miles) per hour.

A video posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, shows one Florida resident biking through the immense flooding.

Joe Biden on Saturday surveyed damage caused by Hurricane Idalia in northern Florida and comforted residents hit by the storm, but notably had no plans to meet with Ron DeSantis, the state's Republican governor and a potential presidential rival.

Residents in the US state of Florida on Thursday cleaned up after rain and flooding caused by Hurricane Idalia wreaked havoc before the storm weakened and headed out to sea.

The sedan stands on its front bumper momentarily before landing on another car. The other sedan was damaged by the impact.

Officials in Florida described Idalia and its record-high surging waters as once-in-a-lifetime event.

Hurricane Idalia brought torrential rain and threats of flash flooding on Wednesday afternoon to southeast Georgia after slamming into Florida.

Hurricane Idalia slammed into northwest Florida as an "extremely dangerous" Category 3 storm early Wednesday, as officials warned of catastrophic impacts including storm surges of up to 16 feet (about five meters).

The base was evacuating as Hurricane Idalia headed toward the state.

Known as a king tide, these higher tides are caused by the extra gravitational pull that occurs when the sun and moon align with Earth.
