Ron DeSantis: “Walton County is now up to 80% restored, remaining customers are expected to have power tonight into early tomorrow.”

I know that this was a storm that had a broad impact. It’s not just Okaloosa County, where it made landfall, and we understand that there was damage that stretches, really, from the Alabama-Florida line all the way into the Far Eastern…

“Normally, you would think right there on the coast would be the worst. Here, you see that go inland,”

We now have essentially full restoration in Bay County, Okaloosa is over 96% restored, and Washington County’s over 91% were restored.

As of this morning, all state-owned bridges are safe and have been reopened for travel. Crew finished inspecting all the coastal bridges by 0600 this morning.
