This single Mama with kids is evacuating ….. Headed up to South Carolina, because I couldn’t find any hotels available in Georgia. I am praying for every single person living in the south. It’s just unimaginable that last week we were hit with such a big storm ……and now again.

Keep praying for us!

I moved from Florida in 1992... There was a reason that becomes clearer year after year. Just the thought of 15' waves... my heart goes out to all the less fortunate that cant leave 🙏🙏🙏

[BellaBright-ug]

So glad the people are taking the warnings, serious and existing. Safety first.

[MONKEEZGAMEZ]

Florida: Nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there.

[evaacosta]

Get out of there asap! Save your life.

[GTSongwriter]

[MyraChambers-dfzd]

ANYONE SPREADING FALSE LIES ABOUT THE RESPONSE SHOULD BE ASHAMED .AMERICA DESERVES HELP NOT

[rosechaney]

Dear Lord please send this hurricane back to where it came from. Protect these people and please protect my kids and grandkids. In Jesus' mighty name I pray. Amen

FEMA is not a substitute for having home owners insurance. FEMA is not going to rebuild everyone's home for them. What FEMA does is stabilization and security. Ignorance isn't a virtue.

I don't understand how you can say those funds are separate they are all our tax dollars.... Which should be spent on our country not everyone else's. If you care about Americans you wouldn't give all of our damn money away to other people to fund wars!! This is such BS!!

[joem]

How do people evacuate when gas runs out and the roads are full of people trying to leave?

[Awakecynthia]

I don't know why people wouldn't leave or even move there

[dancingpixie]

So glad the real message is getting out! 🙏 for all Americans in the path of Milton & those effected by Helene. 💙💙

[queenpurple]

Praying for all victims of this hurricane 🙏

[TheresaTolbert-tx]

PLEASE, DONT BE DISTRACTED BY DISINFORMATION!!!!

[elizabethveverka]

Cissy and Whitney are singing together again ❤❤

[NONEISH]

If we took this weather very seriously we would be talking more about how to save the planet versus reporting these catastrophies like some thrilling sports event
