Currently over the Atlantic, the hurricane is strengthening and should touch the shores of the US state on Monday, September 2, with winds up to 220 km / h. The Florida governor has extended the state of emergency to the entire state. This Saturday, August 31, 4,000 soldiers of the National Guard will be mobilized, ready to launch relief operations.
Ron DeSantis spared no warning this Friday at a press conference. " The people of Florida must be ready," said the Florida governor. Each inhabitant must have at his disposal a reserve of seven days in food, medicine and water. As the hurricane will cross our state slowly, its effects could be felt for several days. And that will cause a lot of problems. "
The Florida authorities are preparing for the floods, caused by tides and heavy rains. The governor brought " boats, amphibians and 4x4s. We have also asked the federal government for vehicles specially designed for driving on flooded streets. "
Evacuation orders will be announced in the coming hours. " Better to evacuate and not finish off victim , rather than stay and put your life at risk, " warned Ron DeSantis. On Friday, Dorian reached Category 3 on a 5-point scale, becoming a " major hurricane ".
