Milton rapidly intensified to a Category 5 hurricane late Monday morning.
Within hours, Milton strengthened to a Category 2, then a Category 3, then a Category 4 and finally a Category 5.
Milton now ranks as the third-greatest 24-hour wind speed intensification for a hurricane in the Atlantic Basin. (Records are based on data since the satellite era began in the 1960s.)
i don’t understand how to use this website. where do i click on to see who needs to get out
If your address has “FL” in it, you should evacuate.
that is quite a lot of people
I’m not sure NOA is responsible for evacuation orders, IIRC they advise state and local governments on who should evacuate and it’s up to the local government to coordinate and reach out to their populations.
You need to go to FloridaDisaster.org
The evacuation orders look super random. I guess it depends on the politics of the county. Great
