Sacramento rapid response team heads to Florida
A six-person rapid response team from Sacramento's Red Cross departed for Florida, where residents have been flooded out of their homes.
"We are high and dry here and we are able to help, so we are," said Tami Martin, a Red Cross team leader.
The all-volunteer team will assist in setting up temporary shelters in areas hardest hit by Tropical Depression Debby.
"We are hearing that hotels and motels where people had been evacuated to are now being evacuated even further back," said David Kennedy, a spokesman for Sacramento's Red Cross chapter.
Tropical Depression Debby has flooded more than 100 homes, sparked dozens of water rescues and been blamed for several deaths.
