Federal authorities say the effects of the storm could be widespread.
"This is going to be a multi-state event with the potential for significant impacts from Florida all the way to Tennessee," saidDeanne Criswell with FEMA. "So, please take this threat from storm surge seriously. Residents that are in these areas, they can still take action. They can take action now to move out of harm's way."
