DeSantis warns residents to 'hunker down' as Milton makes landfall

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) said Wednesday that Hurricane Milton “is currently in the process of making landfall” as a Category 3 hurricane in Sarasota County, and he warned residents to “hunker down” until the storm passes.

“At this point, it's too dangerous to evacuate safely, so you have to shelter in place and just hunker down,” DeSantis said at a press conference Wednesday evening.
