Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office just announced all access points in and out of the county – which includes St Petersburg – will remain closed until further notice due to “hazardous conditions”.
They say the closure also applies to the barrier islands, including Fort de Soto and Sand Key.
Earlier, the local emergency management department confirmed Hurricane Milton had brought over 18 inches of rain and “gusts to 101mph”, causing extensive damage and flooding.
