The strong Category 4 storm, Hurricane Milton is expected to make landfall overnight Wednesday on Florida’s Central Gulf Coast. It could be one of the most destructive storms on record.
Milton is growing in size and the tropical-storm-force winds expanded from 105 miles to 125 miles from it center in the last 24 hours. The storm’s outer bands have already arrived and force winds and heavy rain will come by this afternoon.
The International Space Station NASA astronaut Matthew Dominicl took a picture of Hurricane Milton and showed what it looks like from space.
He wrote, ‘We flew over Hurricane Milton again today about an hour ago. It was not as symmetric as yesterday but it appeared larger today.
Florida officials said it was the 11th hour to evacuate and urged residents to get out while there was still time on Wednesday morning.
