Description
The United States Navy announced Friday night that it will move warships out of the San Diego Bay to avoid potential damage inflicted by Hilary.
The Navy says ships and submarines will get underway Saturday from Naval Base San Diego, Naval Base Coronado and Naval Base Point Loma. The ships will remain at sea until Hilary passes over the region.
“In order to ensure the safety of our Sailors and ships, we are taking all necessary measures to mitigate potential damage to infrastructure and Third Fleet vessels caused by the storm,” said Vice Adm. Michael Boyle, commander, U.S. Third Fleet. “Safety remains our top priority, and putting all capable ships to sea makes it easier for us to manage the situation ashore.”
