Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) joined CNN News Central to discuss the latest on Hurricane Idalia. I think that’s true in Taylor County. For the first time in hurricane season, I’ve seen news outlets like CNN and the local outlets actually go to the storm surge projection, the storm surge cone, before they go to the wind cone. “That’s very encouraging, because that really mean wind is a very dangerous thing, but that storm surge [is worse]. You can elevate a little bit, but when you’re talking about seven, eight feet of storm surge, it’s very tough to build against that.
