Don’t go out, warns Ron DeSantis
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis spoke early Wednesday morning to provide an update on Hurricane Idalia, now a Category 4.
Idalia could cause six-foot-high storm surges and put Floridians’ lives at risk even after the worst is over, he says.
Don’t go out in the middle of it all. Once the storm has passed, do not drive on flooded streets. Do not touch downed power lines, they may still be live.
This thing is powerful. Hide until she passes. You don’t want to play with these winds. There will be things that will fly everywhere.
However, he wanted to assure his people that Florida is ready to recover quickly from the damage of the storm. No less than 30,000 workers are on the alert to reconnect residents who have lost electricity. In addition, 11,000 generators are ready to be deployed and 4.5 million liters of gasoline are available.
