Hurricane Milton: DeSantis Tells Floridians to Obey Evacuation Orders

Показать описание
#Milton exploded into the Atlantic’s strongest #hurricane this year, bearing down as a catastrophic Category 5 #storm on a #Florida region still struggling to recover from #Helene devastation.

Milton’s top winds have reached 175 miles (281 kilometers) per hour, up from 90 mph at 1 a.m. local time Monday, the #US National Hurricane Center said in a 1 p.m. local time advisory. Milton now bests Hurricane #Beryl which raked #Texas #Mexico and the #Caribbean in July, as the most powerful #Atlantic storm this season.

With winds this intense, Milton is capable of collapsing homes, flattening trees and triggering power outages that could last weeks to months. It’s difficult for hurricanes to maintain their maximum strength for long, however, so Milton may weaken as it nears Florida’s west coast. Only four Category 5 hurricanes have hit the US mainland, including #Michael which struck Florida’s Panhandle in 2018.

Unfortunately you can’t evacuate now. It’s too late and too much traffic. You’ll get stuck in the middle of Milton. This is going to be worse than Katrina and she wasn’t even a category 5. Prayers to Tampa man. We gun witness another potential disaster.

Why did it take Biden and Cooper an entire week to send help to NC?
