Rick Scott: Hurricane Irma Is More ‘Devastating’ than Hurricane Andrew

‘Do not put yourself or your family in harm’s way’

EXCERPT:

SCOTT: "Today is the day to do the right thing for your family and get to safety. This storm is wider than our entire state. Think about that; it’s wider than our entire state. And it’s expected to cause major and a life-threatening impacts from coast-to-coast. Remember hurricane Andrew was one of the worst storms in the history of our state. Irma is more devastating on its current path. We are being very aggressive in our preparation for this storm and every Floridian should take this seriously and be aggressive to protect your family. Possessions can be replaced; your life and family cannot."
