life-threatening storm surge is expected along florida's west coast. storm surge values show areas could see upwards of 15 feet again as i said several times the ceiling in this room were in right now is 10'8". so another five feet another five feet above that. that is certainly not survivable. survivable. counties have ordered a mandatory evacuations all up and down florida's west coast region and i urge you to heed those warnings. if you're in one of those zones. if you're if you are unn evacuation zone visit floridadisaster.org/no and enter your address to find out if you're in an evacuation zone. there are options to assist residents with evacuating. we have shuttle systems running today for residents in counties with evacuation orders. we also have our lift and over again that is available by entering the code milton release, built in relief. you can find the schedule by visiting floridadisaster.org/update. all assistance visitor to include when he got a demo for shuttles. that number is 807, 129, 3403. that is for residents in any evacuation zone

>> well, this part of the florida peninsula, this west coast of florida peninsula is incredibly, incredibly susceptible to storm surge we saw in helene, even though helene sort of passed to the west, you still got this catastrophic storm surge along portions of the florida west coast this case, it's going to be a direct impact of direct shot and more powerful it that we're going to have potentially catastrophic wind damage over a densely populated portion of the florida peninsula. this is the i4 corridor, heavily heavily populated area plus the storm surge is going to be worse than we saw in helene in some cases. so, you know, this is a big, we've got a lot of evacuation orders that are in place along the florida west coast. i'm hoping i'm hoping people are heeding those warnings. >> jimmy, when it comes to the compound effect of having hurricane helene, as you noted with that storm surge rise up the west coast. and now this category four supposedly when it makes landfall, it will be category for what does that do? major hurricane force winds occur and they're storm surge, it's, it's crippl
