As Hurricane Michael makes its way towards the Florida Panhandle, tens of thousands of people have been ordered to be aware of the warnings of possible coastal flooding.

More than 20 counties have been ordered to evacuate as the Category 2 storm continues to gain strength.

National Hurricane Center predicts the storm to become a Category 3 before coming ashore on Wednesday (10/10) in either the Panhandle or Big Bend area of the state. 

Weather experts say it would rank as the most powerful storm to strike the Panhandle in more than a decade.
