Any news on roads for evacuations? Are there any
traffic problems that people need to be aware of?
Is it too late for people to try to leave the East
Coast of Florida (Atlantic side)?

Depends on what part of the Atlantic coast you're concerned about:

If Daytona-San Augustine-Jacksonville - they "might" consider moving, but then they risk getting trapped in traffic on the highway over night when the storm goes overhead. besides, where are they going to go?

Get on I-95 and head south?

If elsewhere, they should stay put- because you can't out-guess nor outrun, a tornado.

Absolutely too late. There was a big fatal accident on the beeline (528) @ 520 jct when a thunderstorm (poss tornado) blew a trailer truck across the highway. 2 deaths. Stay put! hunker down. No way you would be safer in a car than in a building (mostly).
