We hope everyone in the St. Petersburg community and Florida is staying safe and finding strength as we navigate the aftermath of Hurricane Milton. Our hearts go out to those impacted by both Helene and Milton, and we are truly inspired by the resilience and kindness demonstrated across our city. Albert Whitted Airport endured winds exceeding 100 mph during last night’s storm, resulting in damage to several buildings and some aircraft. We care deeply about our community and the special place Albert Whitted holds in St. Pete. We will continue to share information as it becomes available. Stay strong, look out for one another, and know that together we can rise above any challenge.
