FEMA in touch with California, Nevada governors

FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell told reporters she is providing "continuous updates" to the White House about preparations ahead of the storm.

Criswell said she has also been in contact with California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo to discuss "what type of support that they may need from FEMA and the federal family, but also to remind them that we are ready to support them as needed for this storm."

Criswell said they will not be moving any resources from Maui to California or Nevada to respond to the storm.

"We are still fully engaged in our efforts to help the state and people of Hawaii recover but it's also equally important that we are making sure communities that are in the path of Hilary also have the resources that they may need, and to what is likely going to be heavy impacts from rain and flooding," she said.
