Hurricane Milton’s unpredicted shift/wobble southward closer to Yucatan Peninsula now puts Milton on a more traditional North-NorthEast track as it heads toward the Southwest Florida Coast. [Latest NHC Update Here].

A large evacuation program is underway as people leave the west coastal Florida areas.  However, the exact path of Milton is still unknown. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis holds a press conference to discuss, among other things, the urgent distribution of fuel to assist in keeping fuel flowing to the gas stations on the evacuation routes.

Additionally, debris removal from the areas impacted by Hurricane Helene will continue through today on a 24 hour operation; which will continue until conditions deteriorate and it is no longer safe.  A massive assembly of state resources for search, rescue and recovery operations continue being staged.  Due to the needs in Eastern Kentucky and Western NC, an additional 36,000 linemen and power recovery operations are flowing toward Florida from far west.

As many of you are aware, my homebase is directly in the path.  I will provide updates as soon as possible and share plans for communication and ongoing CTH site operation (tonight).  We will pre-schedule the daily open threads so that discussion of all important topics can continue uninterrupted.

My message….  Despite the chaos around us in the deep south, for those outside the impact region, we need to keep pushing information for voter registrations (and ballot challenges) ahead of election deadlines and stay focused on the longer-term mission of MAGA 2024.  For those in the impact region – focus on your immediate needs, follow prior advice on planning and preparation, evacuate if needed.  Don’t forget to pause, breathe and PRAY. Love to all y’all. /SD
