Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced Tuesday that six deaths in the state are linked to Hurricane Isaias.

The storm made landfall near Destin as a Category 2 hurricane with 105 mph winds late Friday, bringing damaging winds, heavy rain, and storm surge to the Panhandle. It left hundreds of thousands without power across Florida and neighboring states.

DeSantis detailed the fatalities during a news conference in Vernon. Two deaths occurred in Escambia County: one when a tree fell on a home and another when a man died from carbon monoxide poisoning after running a generator in his garage. Four additional deaths involved a tree-removal accident, a car crash at an intersection with a non-functioning traffic signal, and disruptions to medical treatment for two individuals.

The governor noted that the updated total includes two deaths previously reported and praised residents and local officials for precautions that kept the toll lower than in past storms. “We’re sad to hear that. At the same time, we’ve had some where there have been a lot more,” DeSantis said. “I think people did take precautions and I think the local officials did a good job of spreading the word.”

Cleanup and power restoration continue, with about 5,000 customers still without electricity in northwest Florida. State agencies have conducted hundreds of response missions and cleared debris from roads. Isaias weakened after landfall but caused significant tree damage and flooding in affected areas. Authorities have urged continued caution when using generators and removing storm debris.
