Hurricane Milton live updates: ‘Potentially catastrophic’ Category 5 storm takes aim at Florida

Milton hurricane rapidly intensified on October 7th, with wind speeds reaching 257 km/h, making it a Category 5 hurricane — the highest level on the U.S. scale — just two days after forming in the Gulf of Mexico.

The U.S. National Hurricane Center predicts that Milton will make landfall on Florida’s west coast midweek as a high-intensity storm. The projected path shows that Hurricane Milton will strike the Tampa Bay area on October 9th and continue moving through Central Florida toward the Atlantic Ocean.

Although Milton is smaller than the previous superstorm Helene, it will pass through more densely populated areas, increasing the risk of storm surges and causing significant damage.

Southern Florida has already begun to feel the initial impacts of the storm, with flooding reported in Miami-Dade County and the Everglades. Flood warnings are expected to remain in effect in many areas until October 10th. Forecast models are concerned that if Hurricane Milton makes landfall in Tampa Bay, it could cause severe storm surges and potentially become the region’s most catastrophic natural disaster in history.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has declared a state of emergency in 51 counties, advising residents to stock up on enough food and water for a week and be prepared for evacuation. Mandatory evacuation orders have been issued for many healthcare facilities and high-risk areas. Public services and schools in several places, such as Pinellas County, have been temporarily closed from October 7th to October 9th in response to Hurricane Milton.

Hurricane and storm surge warnings have been issued for multiple areas along Florida’s Gulf Coast. Heavy rainfall of up to 37 cm is expected to impact the Florida Peninsula and the Florida Keys from October 8th to October 9th.
