Chief Williams and I just finished a briefing with Leon County Emergency Management and the National Weather Service in Tallahassee. The 72-hour weather forecast for Leon County does not include any tropical storm force winds in our area with only the possibility for wind gusts between 20-35 mph on both Thursday and Friday. They have also reduced the amount of anticipated rain, as a result of Hurricane Ian, down to less than 1 inch.
As a result of this information, we have made the decision to keep our schools open for the remainder of the week for all in-class and after-school activities.
Our thoughts and prayers certainly go out to other Floridians in both central and south Florida as they battle this very powerful storm.
