(Valdosta Fire Department | Facebook) GEORGIA — President Joe Biden declared Georgia a major disaster area Thursday, allowing federal aid to support state and local recovery efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Idalia. Idalia hit southern Georgia on Aug. 30 after battering parts of Florida, causing widespread damage in multiple counties and forcing several days of cleanup for the region.
