Isaias had weakened to a post-tropical cyclone, but the danger in Georgia had not ended. FOX 5 Atlanta's update describes heavy rain and strong gusts uprooting large trees across metro Atlanta, with more than 100,000 power outages statewide after the storm struck the Gulf Coast overnight.
The station's "Everything you need to know about Isaias right now | FOX 5 News" reached more than 200,000 views in its first 18 hours, far beyond the usual audience for one of its regular reports. Its focus is no longer simply where the storm will go: it is what the storm has left behind, and which threats remain.
Three accompanying weather updates also drew unusually large audiences. They covered road closures in Troup County, continuing flood and brief tornado threats in eastern Georgia, and Chief Meteorologist Joanne Feldman's account of high winds and outages in North Georgia.
The station's local follow-ups put those warnings into concrete terms: crews clearing fallen trees and loose electrical lines in Brookhaven, and utility restoration crews shifting locations around Stone Mountain as outages fluctuated.
