The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has confirmed that it has adequate funds to manage the response to Hurricane Milton, a category 5 storm, and to continue the ongoing recovery efforts from Hurricane Helene. Administrator Deanne Criswell made this announcement on Monday, providing reassurance to those in the affected areas.
Hurricane Helene made landfall on September 26, shortly after 11 p.m. ET, impacting several regions. Now, Hurricane Milton is forecasted to hit some of the same areas later this week, posing additional challenges for FEMA and the communities in its path.
