By Wednesday morning local time (September 28), the <strong>National Hurricane Centre (NHC)<\/strong> predicted that southwest and west-central Florida will experience <strong>hurricane-force winds<\/strong>, with tropical storm conditions following by the evening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By Thursday and Friday, it&#8217;s anticipated that the Florida Keys, south Florida, central Florida, and the southeast coast will all be seeing an <strong>increase in heavy rain<\/strong>.

Widespread, protracted moderate to significant <strong>river flooding<\/strong> is anticipated from central Florida through southern Georgia and coastal South Carolina.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Evacuation of Horses<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More than <strong>2,000 evacuated horses<\/strong> were taken in by the <strong>World Equestrian Center<\/strong> in Ocala, northern Florida, and it is currently at capacity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the interview with Horse&amp;Hound, <strong>US Equestrian (USEF)<\/strong> stated that it is &#8220;actively monitoring&#8221; the developing situation and any <strong>potential consequences<\/strong> on horses in Florida. The spokesman of USEF said, &#8220;We <strong>commend<\/strong> the World Equestrian Centre&#8217;s <strong>effort<\/strong>s in accommodating more than 2,000 horses in need by kindly opening their facility.
