and it might strike hard there tomorrow. not only is this a life-threatening category 3 hurricane getting stronger, packing winds of 120 miles an hour, it s also getting larger in its size. ian s wind field is expanding, which can potentially expose more of florida to destruction. the storm s exact landfall tomorrow does remain uncertain, but it could be between tampa and ft. myers. now, one of the greatest threats is the storm surge and it could reach up to even 12 feet in some areas, which could bring, as you can imagine, pretty catastrophic flooding. floridians are being urged by officials not to underestimate this storm and nearly 2 million people are already under mandatory evacuation orders all across florida. and more are at least urged to leave. police in tampa are now going door to door warning people they got to get out. 5,000 national guard members are now even activated in florida and another 2,000 guard troops are from other states to help them out. we re about t
from washington because the color to tell you, this is something that will have a devastating impact on the nation s economy echo amtrak, the nation s cross-country railway system, is canceling all of its long distance trains ahead of a plant workers strike that really threatens to do damage on a scale that we have not seen in quite some time back of that announcement effectively cancels all planned trips except for those along the northeast corridor between boston and washington, d.c. the companies as our changes are all trains can reach the destination before the strike, which could begin as early as friday, and in case you re wondering, yes, we are talking about major cost because tthe strike could cost up to $2 billion per day per, we are talking about 60,000 workers plotting a walkout for better conditions. there s still time to get this resort, but there s only a few days left or they have a construct that is available that frankly needs to be adopted, but if this goe
