TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) -- In the aftermath of Hurricane Irma, Leon County is continuing to enforce a countywide curfew through Tuesday morning.

The curfew runs from 9 p.m. on Monday, September 11 to 7 a.m. Tuesday, September 12.

The curfew requires all county residents and visitors to remain indoors during the prescribed times to allow first responders and emergency personnel to most effectively protect the safety of residents and property. The threat of hurricane force winds, downed trees and power lines also pose real risk to the public.

Even when the curfew period is not in effect, citizens should limit travel on public roadways to allow officials to conduct response and recovery efforts most effectively.
