What the coverage shows
ABC News and CNN both frame the story around Tropical Storm Isaias moving toward the Gulf Coast and strengthening soon. CNN is more specific, saying it could rapidly strengthen into a hurricane and even reach strong Category 2 strength, while ABC News says only that it is expected to strengthen in the next 24 to 48 hours. ABC also uniquely notes that Chief Meteorologist Ginger Zee is tracking the storm.
