Hurricane Milton Recovery Efforts Underway in Florida

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is scheduled to address recovery efforts following Hurricane Milton in Treasure Island, where the storm has caused significant destruction across the state. Milton, which struck as a Category 3 hurricane, resulted in at least 17 fatalities and left many communities grappling with impassable roads and power outages. Recovery efforts are ongoing, with fuel distribution sites established in response to fuel shortages due to the storm's impact on gas stations. Local officials, including Senator Rick Scott, are assessing damage and coordinating FEMA assistance. Schools in the Treasure Coast are set to resume classes soon, albeit with some logistical adjustments due to the damage. As recovery progresses, many residents are still facing challenges returning home and accessing basic resources.
