Hurricane Milton has rapidly intensified in the Gulf of Mexico, now classified as a “potentially catastrophic” Category 5 storm. It’s barreling eastward toward Florida, with landfall expected late Wednesday along the Gulf Coast.
As Florida still recovers from the impact of Hurricane Helene, up to 15 million residents remain under flood watches, while 11 million face the threat of tropical tornadoes through tomorrow and Wednesday. Mandatory evacuations have already begun along parts of the state’s west coast.
Milton is forecast to reach its peak intensity by tomorrow morning before slightly weakening to a powerful Category 3 ahead of landfall. Stay informed and take immediate precautions.
Hurricane watches are in effect in Tampa, Sarasota, Fort Myers, Naples and Orlando.
