For every child lost to a school shooting, there is a room that’s left behind. Eerily quiet. Tragically brimming with personality. And frozen in time.
For the past six years, CBS News’ @SteveHartmanCBS has been traveling the country with photographer Lou Bopp, going into some of these rooms and photographing them.
The heartbroken parents who opened their doors to us say people constantly tell them that they can’t imagine what they’re going through. But they say people need to imagine.

#teamHCSO, alongside Florida Highway Patrol and the Tampa Police Department, assisted in escorting fuel trucks from the Port of Tampa Bay across the county to ensure safe deliveries. We know many residents are concerned about fuel availability following Hurricane Milton, and we’re working together to keep supplies moving.
Good news! Gas is on its way throughout the @cityoftampa. To get it to stations even faster, our officers alongside our law enforcement partners are leading the way.
Please be patient, but most importantly be KIND as we work tirelessly to get our city back to normal.
Speechless. We are at the entrance to our Tampa Bay Times office in downtown St. Petersburg.
A crane is blocking the road, and several stories up, smoke billows out of the building from where it appears the crane fell
Smell of gas in the air and you can hear alarms #MILTON

Just hours before #HurricaneMilton is set to strike Florida, residents in several neighborhoods have witnessed an eerie spectacle

Catastrophic, life-threatening, & landscape-changing storm surge likely. If you are in an evacuation zone being asked to leave, don’t hesitate.
If you are not in an evacuation zone but still within impact, prepare to lose power
These maps help show where.
You can see where the eyewall of #HELENE went by looking at the power loss. Still more to come as we are still getting near 100mph wind gusts. 96mph lowndes county ga, 99mph jennings, fl, 94 mph hamilton crossroads, fl. All within the last hour. 1.5 million out in FL and GA. Thanks @macedo_weather for passing along the gusts.
