Hurricane Milton is expected to cause devastation in America. The hurricane is moving towards the Tampa Bay coast of Florida on Tuesday. In view of the hurricane, the administration in Florida has ordered evacuation of coastal areas. More than 1 million people have been asked to move to a safe place. This huge hurricane has come less than two weeks after Hurricane Helen wreaked havoc.
Could become the most devastating storm
Hurricane Milton could hit the coast on Wednesday, threatening Florida's densely populated west coast. Milton could be one of the most destructive hurricanes ever to hit west-central Florida, the US National Hurricane Center said. Waves of 10 to 15 feet are expected along the coastline north and south of Tampa Bay.
There is also a risk of flooding
Rainfall of 127 to 254 mm or more is forecast. There is also a risk of flooding. Nearly 900 domestic and international flights have been delayed. Nearly 700 flights have been canceled. More than 1,500 flights scheduled for Wednesday have been canceled. President Joe Biden on Tuesday postponed his trip to Germany and Angola from October 10-15, the White House said.
Biden said – this is a matter of life and death
US President Joe Biden urged people who have been ordered to leave Florida before Hurricane Milton hits to immediately move to a safe place. Biden said that this is a matter of life and death. This could be the most severe storm to hit Florida in more than a century. I pray to God that this does not happen, but right now it seems so. Biden has approved emergency declarations in Florida.
