Hurricane hunters film the eye of Hurricane Milton near Florida

Hurricane hunters provided an inside look at Hurricane Milton as it churned over the Gulf of Mexico.

The monster storm closed in on Florida's west coast, spawning tornadoes and lashing the region with rain and wind hours ahead of its expected landfall near Tampa Bay, where it could deliver a life-threatening surge of seawater to waterfront communities already battered by Hurricane Helene.

Friend of mine lives in the Tampa Bay area and is currently sheltering. We're hoping he has a home to go back to when this blows over.
