The storm is already blamed for at least 11 deaths. And as hena daniels reports, evacuations are underway at the Atlantic Coast. Reporter Hurricane Matthew is barreling towards the bahamas after hitting cuba and haiti with 145mileperhour winds. The category 4 storm brought torrential rain to haitis southwestern peninsula. Streets were turned into raging rivers. The water moved cars downed the street with ease as people tried to get to safety. It will continue to follow the shape of the coast as we head into friday up to the georgia South Carolina coast and then on saturday into sunday it starts to move north and east. Reporter matthew is predicted to be closest to the florida coast overnight from thursday into friday. People are stocking up on emergency supplies like food, water and batteries. Florida governor rick scott is warning residents to know the evacuation route. If matthew directly impacts florida, there will be massive destruction that we arent seen in years. Reporter further up the coast in South Carolina, long lines can be found at gas stations after the governor warned an estimated 1. 1 Million People could be ready to move inland. Our goal is to make sure that you basically get 100 miles away from the coast. Reporter the storm is expected to maintain 130mile perhour winds as it heads towards the eastern seaboard. Hena daniels, cbs news. I have compiled a number of different computer models in the Weather Center with the assistance of noaa to put together a tracking map for Hurricane Matthew. Keep in mind, there you have matthew over haiti. As it blasted onshore at cuba and tangles up with hispanola it lost strength and downsized to category 3 but they gather strength and momentum so watch this as that hurricane moves into the warmer waters outside the bahamas. It becomes a category 4 again with winds in excess of 145 Miles Per Hour moving into the state of florida thursday 2 p. M. With 130mileperhour winds so we have hurricane watches and evacuations in effect at this time for the state of florida. Keep in mind that hurricane winds can extend out at least a good 120 to 150 miles so while you may be buffeted with those hurricaneforce winds in florida, youre probably beginning to see some of the effects in the state of georgia, as well. Well continue to monitor Hurricane Matthew. Sunnyvalebased yahoo reportedly created software to search its customers emails for information requested by the federal government.
