LAKE COUNTY, Fla. - Hurricane Debby caused a 911 outage in Lake County which has since been restored county-wide.
The Lake County Office of Emergency Management said on Monday morning that intermittent outages were possible, which could have kept residents from contacting dispatchers in the event of an emergency.
During the outage, Lake County residents experiencing a life-threatening emergency were urged to contact the county's non-emergency number.
