Live Hurricane Idalia Relief - Mission 1: Steinhatchee Florida

In This Hurricane Idalia Relief in Steinhatchee Episode:
After Hurricane Idalia we drive up to the Big Bend area of Florida, to assess the damage and see if we can pass out supplies. Out destination is Steinhatchee outside of Perry. Unfortunately we arrive at night, after we load our truck with bottled water. Can we find a place to deliver this water, where it will help the residents directly? Watch to find out, we have been covering this hurricane before, during, and now after. In person, and on the ground showing the real truth!

Hurricane Idalia: Was a Category 4 Hurricane which made landfall near Keaton Beach in Florida's Big Bend area on August 30,2023. The tenth tropical storm, third hurricane, and second major hurricane of the 2023 Atlantic hurricane season, Idalia formed from a low-pressure area that crossed Central America from the eastern Pacific Ocean. It slowly gained momentum and speed before hitting Florida's Big Bend area. Fortunately, the storm didn't hover over land causing more damage, it moved up through Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina before turning into the Atlantic Ocean.

Steinhatchee: Steinhatchee is a Gulf coastal community in the southern part of Taylor County, Florida, United States. Steinhatchee is 38 miles south of the county seat of Perry, which sits right where Florida’s Gulf Coast curves from being east-west to north-south.

This small town is a fishing village of about 1,000 people on the north side of the Steinhatchee River and is about 70 miles west of Gainesville - 1.5 hours by car. The even smaller village of Jena is across the river from Steinhatchee, and is usually included when folks talk about Steinhatchee. The Steinhatchee is one of Florida's most unspoiled rivers. Fishing is the big industry in town. Saltwater fishing is an important activity for both commercial and sport fishermen.

Florida's Hurricanes: The threat of hurricanes is very real for Florida during the six-month long Atlantic hurricane season, which runs from June 1 until November 30. The peak of hurricane season occurs between mid-August and late October, when the waters in the equatorial Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico have warmed enough to help support the development of tropical waves.
