- Hurricane Milton has made landfall in the US state of Florida.
More than two million homes and businesses are without power, and there have been "a number of deaths" reported on the Atlantic coast.
Milton was downgraded from a category five hurricane to category one, but is still wreaking havoc.
It comes two weeks after Hurricane Helene killed at least 225 people in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and North Carolina.

Tampa Bay here. We came through undamaged, but still have no power. Haven't slept, but too dangerous to go out yet. Lots of tornadoes landing everywhere. RIP to those who didn't make it. 😢
Glad you're ok , from the UK
Just out of curiosity, why did you decide not to evacuate and ride it out instead?
F@@stephenhathaway269
@@stephenhathaway269I hear that there was no fuel for some people wanted to evacuate.
@@Minkywhispers I hear partisan fake news is quite a thing in America these days. Never let a good crisis go to waste!
I'm in Tampa, and it is the worst I have ever seen. Pray for us. The news is not showing you how bad it is.
It’s still dark, you’re not going to see any images until the sun comes up and the storm passes
Don't expect to much from UK BBC they hate Americans
Interesting. Last time just before Florida elections same thing happened?
Wonder if US mili...................
Exactly ! MArge is right they can control the weather !
No , forget it ...e.u., central European region Badley affected by ex hurricane Kirk..sod off ..
And imagine it's only going to get progressively worse throughout our lifetime
Sure, Karen
Agreed. Weather modification will only get worse
Nice , Olsen Twin PFP
Lmao drop the fear mongering, this is hardly the worst hurricane we've had. It was a category 3 storm before weakening to a category 1 as it moved over the state. Stop falling for skynews propaganda.
And what about the life times to come!
10 tornados within a few hours is insane & I still can’t comprehend the danger. I hope the people who stayed will be safe. It must be terrifying
Its category one calm down b
Who cares I'm british and im fed up of seeing news artciles of nations we gave independence to around rhe world including America and like there problems are more important then whats happening in the UK including in the middle East.
Then these nations criticise the uk today for our history that doesn't exist anymore in the uk and western Europe while there politicians and leaders cant take responsibility for there own actions and things like migration today we have become a joke nation today who panders to the modern world around us today and in Europe.
It was 17 tornadoes from what i just read
No it isn't. It's a cat 2. @kingrobert7246
There were at least thirty tornadoes so far they counted.
To everyone in America facing the hurricanes:
I pray that you and your family will stay safe and that there will be no injuries or fatalities. I pray that everyone is completely protected and that there will be minimal damage. Amen!
Prayint online? The irony 😂😂😂😂
If you was punched by somone
Would you then pray online to the same person that punched you begging not to happen again? 😂😂😂😂
Why even live there when you gotta evacuate every year and live with crocs and snakes. Mad people
Disneyland and sunshine
Grew up there unfortunately… the sunshine there was wayyy too intense for me.
Exactly. Muricans
The San Andreas fault line is even worse.
I moved after 21 years. I'm 25, and i was done with the high cost of living and hurricanes
"some have chosen to stay" yea if you have no where to go or dont have the means to go it's not really a choice is it bbc.
There are literally evacuation shelters you can go to if you don't have family out of state. The amenities aren't great but I'd say they beat the hell out of the alternative.
And some could leave but chose to stay. So yes, some chose to stay.
@@badgerbaneWith what gas? 2/3 of the gas stations were out of gas days before and many experienced price gouging in a time of crisis

there are emergency shelters available.
so yes. you have a choice.
The sight of this hurricane and the damage that its capable of producing, it is truly terrifying but nothing compared to those who are in Florida and around those areas. Please stay safe and know that I hope and pray this Hurricane ends. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I know that my thoughts may be meaningless to some but I doubt it is for those who all need their togetherness of everyone else to hope that this doesn't go on for too long.
Emergency money is scarce most went to Ukraine, Issyrail and immigrants...unlucky!

Brenda's description of being in the eye of the storm was very interesting.
YT videos are worth 1000 words. But hard to find amidst Milton's madness.
This is kinda long (23min) but pretty incredible as I recall--
"Hurricane Dorian's Cat 5 Blue Sky Eye" on channel "Jim Edds"

Yeah that fabric roof got a battering
Prayers for the people in Florida, been following live updates on Hurricane Milton all the way from South Africa, this is truly devastating. Stay safe
Somehow managed to get hit by the storm, but my home took no damage and I still have power. Was able to go to my workplace when it stopped, and the building is completely flooded...
Remote work bro get to it
Abit of wind and rain cam do that
Maybe its your fault for living in a fllod plain
I swear this has had more media coverage than the last 30 hurricanes combined.
Not necessarily a bad thing, but it's weird. Usually the one thing we see about these in the UK is a short report and a flyover of damage after it has happened. It's kind of surreal that this one has essentially been livestreamed.
Probably because it was forecast to be a potential Category 5 hurricane hitting a massively populated area that isn't really built to withstand hurricanes
@@sideshowbloband bc area was just hit by Helene. It did look massive on radar though. Climate change is a major topic in every country so there’s that. And it’s probably the October surprise of election..but yea so far it seems overhyped, especially when other countries have been recently devastated by weather.
@@sideshowblob it was never cat 5 had you tho
Its to distract from the middle east
If the US government didnt mess with the weather maybe just maybe that fabric roof would still be alive
@@RoughWalkers It was a Category 5 hurricane for a period of time
As terrifying as this is, it's still good that the US and other powerful countries are starting to feel the effects of climate change firsthand instead of just developing countries. This will definitely give US politicians that deny climate change some pause.
It is referred to as Hurricane Alley, they've had hurricanes every year in recorded history, it's not going to be easy for anyone to separate out an element caused by climate change
@@eddcosterton5531 They are saying its a weather machine 😂😂😂.
@justaguy6133
The first recorded hurricane hit Florida in 1523 (even though Florida didn’t even exist in 1523)……… you “climate people” make it sound like Hurricanes just started happening yesterday…… 🤣
Soooo definitely the US Politicians fault……….. 🤣
climate change..thats what they want you to think..its weather manipulation haarp..blackrock land grab.
@@bishop51807haarp etc..plenty us patents.
Daytona next high tide looks to be around 2 in the afternoon. For those along the coast who may be wondering approximately 4'3" without the increase from this hurricane's storm surge. I have yet to notice any broadcast providing this info for whatever reason. Look carefully where you drive today , hidden debris could be in water you drive or wade through. Wishing all a safe happy day, your alive !
I read this while driving and had an accident
@Jeffreymart
Difference between high tide and low tide is 3” not 4’3”…………. 🤨
And storm surge is exactly that a surge……. And doesn’t mean X amount of feet of water……… the amount of water anywhere on land anywhere in the world is based on elevation and this thing called gravity (Newton did this thing about it) you should look it up sometime………… 🤣
Hold tight Florida sending love & light 🙏
Fuck all that . Call the waffle house and tell em to open up 💯💯💯
From Vietnam , I hope everyone is safe 🙏🙏🙏
To everyone saying it's n9t as dangerous because it downgraded before making landfall, it's not the winds that area the problem, it's the storm surge. The category 5 stage would have pushed a lot of water ahead of it and even if the storm downgraded, that water is still being pushed ahead of the storm. It's the storm surge that takes the most lives in hurricanes. There will still be an enormous surge even if it's only category 3 or 4 and not 4. Stay safe guys :)
Is it time for us all to admit that the media may have gone just a teeny bit overboard with sensationalising this?
Do you live in Tampa?
Massive damage expected. It is a very difficult moment for all. Our prayers are with the residents of Tampa. Hopefully the damage won't be as predicted.
I believe relief would be prompt once it is over.
Tampa is fine . This was an extremely tame hurricane.
@@MasrSRtame ? Is that how those poor folks thrashed by tornadoes describe it ? Have you assessed the entire damage around the state?
there‘s always calm before the storm
Where is the storm of the century?
I was promised a storm of the century! Helene was way worse.
My prayers are with all affected by this storm. May god have blessed you all
Is that the same god that sent this hurricane then? You're an adult, don't be so naive, fairytales aren't real

Thoughts and prayers again! Move along, nothing to see here…
May the God of horseshit shower you with His Blessings!
People seriously need to get their head out of their asses. So what if it wasn't as bad as predicted? You'd swear people wanted complete and utter devastation! It was PREDICTED to be a catastrophic storm. Pick up a dictionary and educate yourself on what 'predicted' means.
BBC using km to make it more dramatic, America or the UK don't use km....
The Uk does use metric system, perhaps in the 90’s and before wasn’t as common
@@mrk09988 It does, but not for defining speed, legally. Anyone who has driven in the UK knows that, it's mph and always has been.
@@mrk09988 The UK has always used miles and mph, and measured height in feet and inches. Some weight is in pounds / stones etc. Imperial and metric is 50 /50
That thing blowing more hot air than Keir Starmer
At the very least, a lot of those video clips still had lights on. Sometimes its the small things....
Stay safe Florida.
Didn't it get downgraded to a category 1 now ? So it's not as dangerous as expected.
It made landfall as a category 3.
Several tornadoes ripped through the state. Foreigners are the most ignorant.
Apparently hurricane classifications have been reassessed. What is now a cat 3 was previously a cat 5, and what would have been a cat 5 would now be a cat 7. So if it's a cat 3 that's still very bad.
I get more info from bbc folks than I get from cnn here in states.
Total BS. We get info 24/7 in the states.
@@llhll8264 its mostly bs though, like that CGI with the 15 foot floods
@NancyHink-ly7sh
Why Yes you definitely get more of the WRONG info from the BBC………. The BBC can’t even get their own country’s info correct……….. 🤣
Seriously devastating impact 😳🤯😨
Prayers for the people of Florida County God be with you in the future ❤
Who are you praying too?
The church of youtube?
Please please upload a video of you praying online
Did you notice how they used kilometers to make it sound worse, even though both UK and USA use miles
I was thinking.. what's that in MPH? (UK)
@@niallrussell7184about 120 mph
To be fair, I use km/h for speed and 120m/h is absolutley mind boggling still.
100 kmh is approximately 60 mph for quick math in your head 🙂
The bbc doesn't use yeehaw America system of measuring, weren't you born in 1992? ever heard of the metric system? Grow up

Well last winter we in southwestern ontario canada only had about 4 or 5 snow storms & i only brought out the snow blower about 3 times in 6 months.
somethings going on, it never used to be so mild out & you have all these storms & floodings.. Yikes!!

Всем американцам привет из России, моя семья очень за вас переживает, надеемся что потери будут минимальны! Удачи вам братья. и знайте не все русские плохие, большинство людей вам соболезнуют
I'm not from America,but I hope everyone knows that not all Russians are bad people. The Russian population is not responsible for this. We in Germany also had an evil person in our past who did inhumane things.My grandparents always told me that the Germans back then couldn't defend themselves against him and his power.And they were killed if they tried.Russians aren't bad,I've only met nice Russians so far. 🫶🏼🇷🇺
@@tanjja_Russian population IS responsible for that. It is not putin who presses bomb release buttons on fighter jets, it is not putin who personally came to the suburbs of Kyiv to steal washing machines and rape women in basements, it is not putin who storms villages on the front line every day. It is just russians - every day they go to kill, rape and rob, those same ordinary russians who so obediently carry out the orders of the Botox Tsar. So oh, don't make me laugh, they are all to blame there. They will pay reparations to the children and grandchildren of Ukrainians who suffered from the war.
"They were driving at no more than 6 miles an hour" and yet in 12 hours went further than 72 miles... why are we talking to this woman, she doesn't even understand basic math

Hi I am praying for all of you and my heart goes out to all 😭
Lets be clear here the state of FL did as little as possible to prepare
It’s was blown out of all proportion to pretend human made climate change is real and get the 🐑to pay more taxes.
Scott from Fort Myers here, me my wife and kids are okay, we are holed up in a parking garage in Rainbow Grove, the tornados have been horrendous, my grandparents have sadly died, their car was caught in a hurricane and blown into the ocean, my dog has passed away too, thrown 100 ft into a wall, I am devastated
Sorry to hear that bro hope your ok
Hopefully the parking garage is ok…..
Omggggg I'm so sorry😢
So sorry for your tragic losses. Stay safe.
in american measurement, 200km/hour equals to 2000 men blowing out a candle.
😢 Absolutely Heartbreaking and so frightening 😢
Stay safe. And makes plans not to stay around for the next ones.

Thanks to first responders and people news. You guys are amazing.
Thank you for be at front. I wish you dont have to bc you all have family. GOD protect you all 🙏

RIP to the Fabric roof... the "Hurricane of the century" really caused some damage
How is this only a category 3? 😭
Because of all the people who prayed for Floridians. Unfortunately, it worked! :(
it was a category 5 but they ease up when they get to the land
It was actually a category 2 not long after landfall.
Now that’s a wild ass job right there.

200km yet usa and the uk use miles per hour . Laughable how you use language to make things sound worse. 👍
This is so sad sending love to these families ❤
200 kilometres per hour? Don't we normally use miles per hour? Is this the same dubious switch that we make with temperatures, where we normally use Celsius until it gets really hot and we can excitedly say it's in the 80s or 90s?
What is 125 mph in km?
The UK officially uses the metric system.
The BBC is a British news agency. The US is the only country that uses miles as a distance measurement. Everywhere else uses metric.
Someone who's blatantly not from the UK trying to tell us what we do and don't do, and being wrong about it.
I'm from England, innit! We may be officially metric but all our weather forecasts show mph. just as all road sign distances and speed limits use miles and mph.
THE NEWS: theres a bit of roof flapping around.

It's still caused a lot of damage, but this hurricane was being touted as a category 5 when it hit land, would cause storm surges of over 4 metres in height, would be the storm of the century and community changing. After decades of hurricanes it's always been the case that their strength reduces.
Fact is that they occur much more often now. Who wants to live there in the future? Millions of damage, people die…this can’t be a situation you want for yourself if you live there in the future.
Got to milk its strength of views right?
@@ehrlichezeilen83evacuee here definitely making a move after this my kids are more important than “paradise” when the pendulum swings it turns to hell real quick
Didn’t see anywhere that said it wouldn’t reduce by the time it hit land and all the reporters are set up in Tampa not where the storm surge hit. In fact the bay has had the water sucked out of it by the storm
lmao and its not even a category 5 its was category 3 when it hit the mainland. These people love fear mongering for profit.
Who would want to live in Florida of the house? Is they are very cheap to buy must be I would never live in a place like that if I had a choice.
And I wouldn't tenay to move in a hell called the UK where it's grey 24/7

As of 2022, China 🇨🇳 was by far the world's largest *coal* consumer with 55% of energy use, an increase of 2% of the total energy from the year before.
So China is accelerating the use of coal despite it having signed the Paris agreement.
No shit, they're the most populous country in the world and they're rapidly developing, but they're also one of the leaders in renewables. Our countries are doing basically nothing, and don't plan to change any time soon despite what's happening, take your hate mongering somewhere else.

8 billion sent to 🇺🇦, $750 given to American citizens who've lost everything in these hurricanes. Also, a lot of people aren't even receiving the $750 as they don't qualify, because of what they earn. I have family in NC, who didn't qualify for the 750, because they own a cell phone.

The usual SUV circus in full swing over here (UK) !!!
⚜ We've been partying all night! The house was shaking so badly, in the wind, and the windows were rattling. My buddy got hit in the head with a board when he was outside. He came in all bloody and the girls here, started crying. That was just after the garage collapsed! That scared us all! The wind was roaring!!! When the garage fell down, we thought the house would go next! It was really loud. It's a good thing we were drunk. The stress would have been bad, but being drunk, we laughed most of the night, until the garage fell in. The cat upset us too. The poor thing floated by on a piece of wood. It was in the garage. A neighbor had left it with us when they evacuated. I don't know where it is now. I'm glad it got out before the roof came down all the way. You should have seen that poor thing, all wet and scared. Junk was flying all around outside! The cat went by on that board so quickly, my girlfriend didn't have time to get it. She tried though. The power is out, what a bummer. Now, the music has stopped. I guess, that ends our party. Now, we'll just sit around, coming up with jokes to cheer us up. The sun's about to come up and everything is going to look terrible, I know. There's even water running down the walls under some windows. The whole place is such a mess!
You'd think getting drunk during a natural disaster might be the stupidest thing to do, how would you protect your kids if things went bad? And the poor cat, your neighbour left it with you to protect and you just left it outside. Sick.
