“如果你被要求疏散，请立即离开，情况只会恶化，”国家飓风中心主任迈克尔·布伦南在周五接受福克斯天气采访时表示。“风暴潮将在夜幕降临后到来，你肯定不想在那时待在那里。”科学家表示，人为导致的气候变化已经使墨西哥湾变暖，可能加剧了像伊塞亚斯这样的飓风。
"If you've been asked to evacuate, get out now, conditions are only going to deteriorate," NHC Director Michael Brennan told Fox Weather on Friday. "That surge is going to come in after dark, that's not a place you are going to want to be in." Scientists say human-caused climate change has warmed the Gulf of Mexico, possibly intensifying hurricanes like Isaias.
