Welcome to

People living in Florida’s capital city are assessing the damage today after Hermine walloped Tallahassee overnight.  Matt Galka was with the Governor as he toured some of the hardest hit neighborhoods.

Linda Williams watched as good Samaritans helped clear a downed tree and light poll that ripped out of her yard.

“I think we have some pretty good neighbors,” she said.

These scenes played out all over Tallahassee as the city recovered following a devastating blow from Hurricane Hermine.

Governor Rick Scott toured some of the hardest hit neighborhoodsFriday to get a feel for the damage first hand

“I talked to an individual where a tree fell on her house, it fell on her and her husband. They got up, but they said if there dog was in the same place he would have passed away, but he was making noise so they moved him,” he said.

More than half the city woke up without power Friday.  Utility crews estimate it could be days before power is fully restored.

And while Hermine left many in the dark…the kindness of strangers provided a bright spot for some storm weary tallahasseeans

“They are wonderful!” said Williams.

“And I’m hoping by them doing this, we’ll get our power back on quicker!”
