Former residents of The Standard Apartments in Clearwater are struggling to recover from Hurricane Milton. The Whiting family lost everything, and their renters insurance didnโt cover any of the damage. Their story is on @BN9

A Tampa familyโs home collapsed yesterday. They say it happened because roofers put materials on the roof that were too heavy, causing it to collapse. Thankfully, they all made it out safely. @BN9

To have been nominated by President-Elect @realDonaldTrump to serve as Administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration is the honor of a lifetime. Over the past several days, as the gravity of this very important responsibility set in, Iโve concluded that I must respectfully withdraw from consideration. There is more work to be done for the citizens of Hillsborough County and a lot of initiatives I am committed to fulfilling. I sincerely appreciate the nomination, outpouring of support by the American people, and look forward to continuing my service as Sheriff of Hillsborough County.

Tampa General Hospital is open and accepting patients although Davis Islands remains inaccessible for non-emergency travel due to flooding.
As the regionโs only Level 1 Trauma Center, Tampa General Hospital remains open and our team stands ready to care for our community. Last night, the AquaFence, a water-tight barrier capable of withstanding up to 15 feet of storm surge, stood strong against #HurricaneHelene.
