I really wonder if all this is necessary or if it’s out of fears of what happened with Harvey..even though Irma isn’t standing still for long...and a different storm.

Definite urgency in Governor Scott's voice and message.

Stressing that Irma is bigger and stronger than Hurricane Andrew. There is no reason not to evacuate if ordered to do so.

FL is such a big state, with so much coastline, its pretty hard to figure our where exactly to deploy assets and have them waiting. I don't envy the planners.
