After Hurricane Helene and Milton have ended, many Florida residents have returned to their destroyed homes to retrieve gas and power, but came to find out that the supply is very very low. The gas stations are still waiting for fuel as residents continue to struggle during this horrible tragedy. The power is gradually being restored by crews who work in the Tampa-Petersburg area on companies, homes, and businesses. The residents and civilians have begun to clean up debris to prevent air pollution after the storm which is a huge priority, according to CNN. The flooding of streets and homes is delaying the recovery of the broken cities because with the water levels still being relatively high, it is difficult for people to operate and conduct any action.
