Uncertainty remains on Ian's track - Jacksonville Business Journal

Gov. Ron DeSantis on Sunday advised people from Tampa to Pensacola to keep their eyes on what could be a dangerous hurricane later this week.

DeSantis on Friday declared a state of emergency that covered 24 counties throughout the southern part of the state and parts of Central Florida. But tracking models then nudged the potential track west and north, and DeSantis on Saturday declared a state of emergency for all of Florida. Florida Emergency Management Director Kevin Guthrie, who said the state “over-evacuated” in Irma by nearly 2 million people, said urban search-and-rescue support from the Federal Emergency Management Agency is on standby, and Florida has received calls from other Southern states offering assistance.

“Restoring power as safely and quickly as possible, while keeping our customers informed, remains our top priority,” Melissa Seixas, Duke Energy Florida state president, said in a prepared statement Sunday. “We want customers to know that our team is ready to respond to Ian or any other storm that could pose a threat to our electric system.”
