The 100-year-old oak smashed into the roof of the governor's mansion in Tallahassee. Nobody was hurt, the First Lady said.

The storm came ashore near Keaton Beach, on Florida's northwest coast, as a category 3 Wednesday morning, bringing winds as high as 125 mph.

DeSantis, who is running to become the Republican presidential nominee, was not at home.
