As of Thursday, 11 October, 11:22:

Michael made landfall as a catastrophic, unprecedented Florida Panhandle Category 4 hurricane early Wednesday afternoon.
Hurricane Michael intensified right up to its landfall near Mexico Beach, Florida, around 12:30 p.m. CDT Wednesday as a high-end Category 4 with maximum sustained winds of 155 mph and a minimum central pressure of 919 millibars.

At one time, it was estimated over 200 roads in the city of Tallahassee were blocked by fallen trees.

Rainfall from Michael has, so far, been largely less than 6 inches, primarily due to Michael's more rapid forward movement. Here are some notable rainfall totals by state:

- Florida: 5.26 inches at Sumatra; 3.17 inches in Tallahassee; 2.61 inches in Panama City

*Lilith, please let us know ASAP that you & yours are OK*
