					<description><![CDATA[More than $45 million in revenue is believed to have been lost when the state suspended highway toll collections to help speed evacuations and relief efforts for Hurricane Irma, Florida&#8217;s Turnpike system estimates. However, the estimated $3 million-a-day impact is not expected to hinder operations of the system or ongoing work programs, “as impacts such as toll suspensions due to a hurricane are taken into consideration during the annual budgeting process,” turnpike spokesman Chad Huff said in an email Friday.&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Toll collections will resume at 12:01 a.m. Thursday on most state toll roads after being lifted Sept. 5 in advance of Hurricane Irma&#8217;s trek across Florida. Tolls will remain suspended on the Homestead Extension of Florida&#8217;s Turnpike south of State Road 874 in southern Miami-Dade County, as Monroe County recovery efforts continue. State officials did not provide an estimate Tuesday of how much the suspension of tolls has cost the state. Irma made landfall Sept. 10 in Monroe and Collier&#8230;]]></description>

Their separation has lasted two weeks, and counting. “Saying it’d be a few days,” Dees said. “That’s funny now.” Slowly, Florida school vacations caused by Irma are ending. Public schools in Miami-Dade County and Broward County — the state’s two biggest school districts and two of the nation’s largest — reopened Monday for&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Florida&#8217;s economy has long thrived on one import above all: People. Until Irma struck this month, the state was adding nearly 1,000 residents a day — 333,471 in the past year, akin to absorbing a city the size of St. Louis or Pittsburgh. Every jobseeker, retiree or new birth, along with billions spent by tourists, helped fuel Florida&#8217;s propulsive growth and economic gains. Yet Hurricane Irma&#8217;s destructive floodwaters renewed fears about how to manage the state&#8217;s population boom as the&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Local curfews were in place throughout the state, much of the Florida Keys remained closed and millions of people continued to lack electricity as cleanup work expected to reach into the billions of dollars began Monday in the wake of deadly Hurricane Irma. While businesses slowly reopen, the state is dealing with widespread flooding, from storm surges of 4 to 8 feet along both coasts to flash flooding in Northeast Florida. Gov.
