Hurricane Milton, a Category 3 storm at landfall, caused significant destruction across Florida with winds exceeding 120 mph, leading to widespread power outages affecting over 2 million residents. The storm brought devastating tornadoes, flooding, and a deadly storm surge, with substantial damage reported in areas like Tampa, St. Petersburg, and Sarasota. In St. Petersburg, multiple construction cranes collapsed due to the high winds, including one at a prominent high-rise project, fortunately causing no injuries. Illinois crews, including ComEd workers, have been dispatched to assist in recovery efforts as Florida begins to assess and repair the damage. Despite the severe impact, there have been no confirmed fatalities reported. The storm is expected to continue causing adverse weather conditions as it moves towards the Atlantic Ocean.
