St. Lucie County Sheriff Keith Pearson reported that “multiple” deaths have been confirmed along Florida’s Atlantic coast following the hurricane’s impact. Additionally, county spokesperson Erick Gill mentioned that “dozens” of tornadoes had developed in the area, with one striking the Spanish Lakes Country Club and resulting in “several fatalities,” according to Pearson.
