Hurricane Milton is expected to hit Florida with high-speed winds, heavy rainfall, and tornadoes. Some residents have evacuated while others are sheltering in place. Resources are running low as people prepare for the storm. The National Weather Service has described the situation as historic, catastrophic, and life-threatening. The storm’s arrival comes shortly after Hurricane Helene caused devastation in multiple regions across the Southeast. Florida residents are exhausted and unsure if they will have a home to return to after Hurricane Milton. The storm is projected to cut across Florida and move into the Atlantic Ocean by late Thursday. Widespread damage is expected, with millions of people likely to be without power, water, and other resources for an extended period of time. Initial reports show toppled trees, downed power lines, and destroyed homes.
