Hurricane Milton has caused significant destruction across Florida, including at least five fatalities in Fort Pierce and extensive damage from tornadoes in western Palm Beach County. Residents in areas like The Acreage and Wellington reported downed power lines, damaged homes, and widespread debris, with some churches, such as Horizons Baptist Church, suffering severe structural damage. Efforts to recover from the storm are ongoing, with over 500 rescues reported in Hillsborough County, including those from an assisted living facility. National Weather Service crews are assessing the tornadoes spawned by the hurricane, which peaked with gusts of up to 92 mph.
