Over the last couple of months, Florida has been hit by two hurricanes, with the first one being Hurricane Debby in early August and the second one being Hurricane Helene in late September.
Though Debby was a Category 1 storm by the time she made landfall in the Big Bend area of the Sunshine State, she packed a powerful punch including heavy rains, storm surges, and strong winds that left downed trees, powerlines, and flooding. Five people were killed during the storm. Helene, which also hit the Big Bend region, was a Category 4 when she struck, leaving more devastation in her wake including at least 20 deaths in the state.
And now, as an even more powerful hurricane threatens Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis is once again in “get it done” mode, providing advance storm briefings detailing how crews have been preparing, and urging residents to evacuate.
