Ahead of Hurricane Dorian, the Homeland Security chief had a message: 3,000 people have been deployed to help and federal agencies were “fully prepared”
Responding to concerns about its handling of past storms, acting Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan said Sunday morning 3,000 people have been deployed across various government agencies for Hurricane Dorian.
McAleenan added Hurricane Dorian is no longer expected to make landfall along the coast of Florida or the Carolinas. “We expect hurricane force winds to potentially hit the coast of Florida and then a prolonged rain event combined with storm surge that’s going to be very difficult as the storm starts to move northward,” he said.
