Florida Governor Ron DeSantis outlined the restoration and relief efforts after devastating Tropical Storm Idalia made landfall on Wednesday turning the state into a giant debris field
Relief and restoration efforts are ongoing in Florida after Hurricane Idalia ravaged the state by making a catastrophic landfall just days ago.
In a latest update, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis outlined how the power restoration will take place in the state after hundreds of thousands of people were impacted by power outages caused by disastrous wind gusts and precipitation. At present, 91,000 people remain without power, he said.
DeSantis appeared positive about the resources available to restore power, as “hundreds of polls have been reported down but we have hundreds of people working” on restoration efforts.
At least two people were left homeless after their houses were flooded by the devastating storm and are now uninhabitable. For people impacted as such, the state will provide five trailers to be installed by Horseshoe Beach, it was announced.
