Hurricane Milton is heading for the Tampa Bay area. While the Tampa area did not suffer the level of destruction from Helene as others this will be a cat 3 storm when it hits. There is still a lot of debris lined up in the streets they are trying to get hauled away before it becomes projectiles in this storm. they are already saturated from continuing rains the last week or so. Flooding will be a major issue alone with the 115 - 125 mph winds. Mandatory evacuations have been issued for many counties along the Gulf coast. Tampa Bay has not seen a major storm since 1921, some say it's because of a blessing by Indian Tribes on local burial sites. Milton is going to affect the entire state in some form. We hope everyone stays safe as Milton hits/crosses the state.
