Fox Weather will provide ongoing coverage of Hurricane Isaias starting Friday morning after forecasters projected a monster storm that will impact parts of the Gulf Coast.
Coverage will begin Friday, October 9 at 5 a.m. Eastern and continue through Saturday night, October 10, the network announced in a press release on Thursday. The storm is forecast to make landfall Friday evening, according to the latest projections from the National Weather Service.
Simulcasts of Fox Weather will air on Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network during the peak of the storm: Fox News will carry Fox Weather’s coverage overnight Friday into Saturday, from midnight to 6 a.m. Eastern. Fox Business will resume coverage from Fox Weather on Saturday morning from 4 a.m. to 9 a.m. Eastern.
The extended programming will feature meteorologists and correspondents reporting from locations across the southeastern United States, with additional coverage originating from Fox Weather’s headquarters in New York.

Fox Weather Hurricane Specialist Bryan Norcross will provide analysis of the storm’s development, projected path and potential impacts.
The network is deploying several meteorologists and correspondents to coastal communities in Alabama and Florida, where Hurricane Isaias is expected to make landfall.
Fox Weather meteorologists Haley Meier and Michael Estime will report from Mobile, Alabama. Meier will monitor conditions using the Fox Weather Beast, the network’s mobile weather reporting vehicle.
Senior Correspondent Robert Ray will be stationed in Pensacola Beach, Florida, while correspondent Brandy Campbell will report from Gulf Shores, Alabama. Correspondent Katie Byrne will provide coverage from Panama City Beach, Florida.
