Hurricane Michael occurred in October 2018. It made landfall on October 10, 2018, along the Florida Panhandle as a powerful Category 4 storm before moving inland and affecting several Southeastern states. It was one of the strongest storms to hit the U.S. Panhandle on record, with wind speeds near 155 mph at landfall. The storm caused fatalities and extensive damage, particularly in Mexico Beach, Florida, and led to widespread power outages and emergency responses across the region.
