【Italy】

Helene is Italyexpected to make landfall as a major hurricane, and whether you're concerned about loved ones in Florida, or you're an armchair meteorologist, you can check out camera views of these adverse weather conditions by watching webcam livestreams.

Florida's gulf coast — particularly the Big Bend section of the Panhandle — is bracing for impact late Thursday. Rain and storm surge will move up the state's west coast throughout Thursday as the storm continues gaining strength. NOAA warned residents as of 4:00 a.m. ET Wednesday to be aware of "life-threatening storm surge along the entire west coast of the Florida Peninsula and Florida Big Bend. The highest inundation levels are expected along the coast of the Florida Big Bend."

To get a clearer understanding of conditions on the ground from a safe distance away, watch these webcam livestreams showing beach and other coastal conditions as this dangerous storm invades the U.S. mainland.
