Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis expressed uncertainty about the pronunciation of Hurricane Isaias. He referred to the name as "not normal" and stated his intention to call it Isaiah instead. The name Isaias is the Spanish form of Isaiah and is pronounced "ee-sah-EE-ahs". DeSantis made these comments during a news conference, where he also discussed a Florida appeals court decision.

Hurricane Isaias is strengthening, having become the first Atlantic hurricane of the season. Further details about the storm and the governor's comments are available.

The news conference where DeSantis made his remarks also touched on a grand jury report regarding alleged misuse of taxpayer money.
