Most left when they were told to. But some chose to stay, even though officials warned Hurricane Milton would turn their homes into coffins.
Along Florida’s Gulf coast, where millions of people were urged to get out of harm’s way, cities were largely deserted on Wednesday afternoon as time ran out to evacuate. Those who remained were advised to shelter in place as best they could. Others who fled spoke of their dread at what, if anything, they would return to once the storm had passed.

William Tokajer, police chief of Holmes Beach, told islanders who planned to stay to write their names, dates of birth and social security numbers on their limbs with Sharpies to help identify their bodies after the storm.

You don't put God to the test by putting yourself in a dangerous situation and expecting him to just save you from your own stupidity.
God sent the evacuation alert for them. They used their free will to choose to stay. Even if you look at it from their perspective, it's a fucking stupid choice. XD
A follower of God is supposed to obey the authorities up to the point it conflicts with God's requirements. Since most of God's laws are stricter/safer than most governments, they should not clash. Evac orders do not clash with God's laws, so they are to be followed.
If Mary and Joseph went to Bethlehem for a census, surely evac orders should be followed one would think.
