President Joe Biden has postponed his scheduled trip to Florida due to Tropical Storm Ian looming over the Caribbean Sea.

He was scheduled to visit Orlando to headline a rally for the Democratic National Convention (DNC) on September 27th, but the major storm is expected to strengthen to a Category 3 or 4 before making landfall on the mainland U.S.

Biden declared a state of emergency for Florida on Saturday and authorized the Department of Homeland Security and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to assist in recovery efforts for those impacted by the storm. Read more about FEMA’s actions here.
