The Navy set plans to move about a dozen carriers and ships ported at Naval Bases Coronado, San Diego and Point Loma out to sea. It also plans to park all of its aircraft based in hangars in Coronado and El Centro.
USS Theodore Roosevelt will be on the move at some point on Saturday, as will USS Nimitz, which is actually on the move not because of the hurricane but because of a scheduled trip to its home port in Bremerton, Washington. USS Abraham Lincoln will stay home.Sign up for NBC San Diego newsletters.
Around 10 other ships will also be moved offshore and all personnel will deploy with their ships, according to the Navy. Most flight operations at the base will be suspended, the Navy said. The Navy will hold a 12 p.m. news conference Saturday at Naval Base San Diego to discuss plans ahead of the storm but has not confirmed a start time.
