News summary

Hurricane Milton has caused extensive damage across Florida, particularly in Manatee County where it tore through the Sunset Village Mobile Home Park, ripping roofs from homes and leaving debris scattered throughout. Emergency services are currently unable to fully respond due to hazards such as downed power lines and obstructed roads, with power outages affecting over a million residents statewide. In Cape Coral, the storm has led to severe incidents, including a home fire where the roof was ripped off amidst the chaos. The Category 3 hurricane made landfall near Siesta Key, bringing winds exceeding 120 mph and significant storm surge, resulting in flooding that submerged cars and businesses. Notably, Tropicana Field, home to the Tampa Bay Rays, suffered roof damage as it was designated as a first responder base camp, complicating rescue efforts. Authorities continue to urge residents to remain indoors for safety as recovery operations commence.
