JEA said crews are ready to respond to any storm impacts in our area and urged customers to prepare for possible power and water outages.

A JEA spokesperson’s restoration may be different from Helene’s because Hurricane Milton is expected to have widespread impacts across the state. For these reasons, customers may have to wait a little longer before they get power again.

‘Be patient with us. We had a significant number of mutual aid crews that were here during Hurricane Helene,” McAllister said. β€œIt will be different for Hurricane Milton as we compete across the state for limited contractor and mutual aid resources.”
