WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump will travel to storm-battered Florida on Thursday to survey damage caused by Hurricane Irma, the White House said.

“The president and the entire administration continue to monitor the situation in Puerto Rico, the United States, the Virgin Islands, Florida, Texas and all the areas affected by Hurricanes Irma and Harvey,” spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said Tuesday in announcing Trump’s visit.

First Lady Melania Trump said she would join her husband on the trip, adding on Twitter: “My concern continues for all impacted by the hurricanes.”
