Hurricane Milton has intensified into a Category 3 storm, bringing heavy rain, tornadoes, and tropical storm-force winds to the Florida coast, particularly threatening the Tampa Bay area. Officials have urged residents to evacuate, with some declaring it too late to leave as conditions worsened, advising those who remained to hunker down. Tornadoes spawned by the hurricane have caused significant damage in South Florida, particularly near Wellington and Royal Palm Beach, with reports of homes damaged and downed trees but, so far, no serious injuries. Governor Ron DeSantis warned of possible fatalities as the storm approaches, stressing the dangers of remaining in vulnerable areas. The US Coast Guard has mobilized resources for search and rescue operations and damage assessments, while tourism in Orlando has come to a halt as airports and attractions close. The hurricane is projected to maintain its strength as it crosses the state, potentially marking Florida's worst hurricane in over a century.
