  "account": "Four people have perished and hundreds of thousands remain without power following Hurricane Isaias' impact on the southern United States. The storm left two fatalities in Alabama and another two in Florida, both resulting from trees falling on homes. Mississippi, Georgia, and Florida each declared emergency declarations prior to Isaias' arrival. Mandatory evacuations were issued in both Florida and Alabama. The storm caused extensive damage, downing trees and wrecking houses. In Florida's Escambia County, a woman died when a tree crashed through the roof of her house, trapping her family inside. Another man died from carbon monoxide poisoning after using a generator in an improperly ventilated garage. Rescuers had to extract individuals from vehicles submerged by floodwaters. Authorities warned of continued risks due to flooding and the potential for spinoff tornadoes. Charleston, South Carolina, advised residents to remain indoors on Saturday night due to high tide predictions of 7.5 feet. Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Rachel was expected to impact southern California, while Hurricane Simon was forecast to make landfall along the Pacific coast of Mexico the following day.",
