Hurricane Milton
October 9 – Milton’s center is now less than 100 miles off the west coast of Florida, with bands of rain and wind beginning to reach land. Although the storm’s exact path and timing are uncertain, landfall is still expected sometime overnight into Thursday.
“#MILTON REMAINS A CATASTROPHIC CATEGORY 5 HURRICANE,” the National Hurricane Center shared on X early this morning. “PREPARATIONS, INCLUDING EVACUATION IF TOLD TO DO SO, SHOULD BE RUSHED TO COMPLETION THIS MORNING.”
October 8 – As of midday Tuesday, Milton has weakened slightly to a Category 4 hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico. Florida landfall is expected late Wednesday between the areas of St. Petersburg and Sarasota. Storm surge in Tampa Bay could reach 15 feet with 18 inches of rainfall and 130mph winds.
Many counties on Florida’s coasts are under evacuation orders; residents are urged to follow the direction of local officials.
October 7 – As of midday Monday, Milton has strengthened to a Category 5 hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico. According to the National Hurricane Center, storm surge and hurricane watches have been issued for portions of Florida.
“There is an increasing risk of life-threatening storm surge from Milton for portions of the west coast of the Florida Peninsula beginning Tuesday night or early Wednesday. Residents should follow any advice given by local officials and evacuate if told to do so,” the Storm Surge Unit at the National Hurricane Center shared on social media.
The current storm track has Milton traveling across Florida from west to east, hitting many of the same areas in the state that were affected by Hurricane Helene not even two weeks ago.
