Hurricane Irma's impact on Port Orange was significant as the storm hit Port Orange during Sunday evening into Monday morning as a Category 1 hurricane with sustained winds of 80-100 mph.
As of Monday at 8 p.m., there are currently 117,398 customers without power in Volusia County.
It's encouraged that neighbors help neighbors to be patient after this storm as it will take time to get the roads cleared from debris and power restored, per the Port Orange city website.
How To Move Debris
After the storm, if you move debris, please keep it away from the road and away from storm drains. Do not stack or lean debris on trees, poles or other structures, including fire hydrants or meters. Debris placed from the sidewalk toward your property will not be picked up.
Normal household trash should be kept separate from storm debris.
Storm debris should be separated into three different kinds:
Vegetative debris: Leaves, logs, plants and tree branches. Do not put leaves in a bag.
Construction and demolition debris: Building materials, carpet, drywall, furniture, lumber, mattresses and plumbing.
Appliances and white goods: Air conditioners, dishwashers, freezers, refrigerators, stoves, washers, dryers and water heaters.
