(CelebrityAccess) — As Hurricane Dorian threatens to make landfall in Florida as a category four storm early next week, the state has begun to make preparations.
Due to its slow speed, forecasters have had a hard time pinning down a clear track for the hurricane and predictions for landfall have varied widely in the last few days, leading officials to warn Floridians from Miami to Jacksonville to prepare for the worst.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Thursday extended his emergency declaration to all of the state’s 67 counties, with tropical winds possible as early as Sunday night.
