Hurricane Milton, a Category 3 storm, made landfall in Siesta Key, Florida, causing widespread destruction and power outages affecting over a million residents. The hurricane brought devastating storm surges up to 15 feet and wind speeds reaching 120 mph, causing severe flooding and damage in areas like Sarasota and Tampa Bay. In St. Petersburg, the strong winds tore off parts of the Tropicana Stadium roof, which was serving as a base for emergency responders. Additionally, a crane in the downtown area was damaged, posing a risk of collapse. The hurricane also triggered tornadoes that resulted in multiple fatalities and further destruction. While the storm is expected to weaken as it moves inland, the impact on Florida's infrastructure and communities remains significant.
