California firefighters, search and rescue crews deploy to Florida to help with Milton

More than 140 firefighters and other support personnel from California are traveling to Florida to help respond to Hurricane Milton, where they will join other disaster aid crews from California who were already staged in the South to respond to Hurricane Helene, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Monday.

“California stands with all those who have lost loved ones, homes and livelihoods in the devastating aftermath of Hurricane Helene. As Hurricane Milton approaches landfall, California is sending additional specialized resources to support critical emergency response and recovery efforts,” Newsom said.
