#Florida #HurricaneMilton #Weather
When the nature is too powerful to be controlled, the only safest way is to get out of its course.
Love and best wishes from Afghanistan!
😂..
@jasoncutshaw8401 hope you lose your mobile home
Love from the nation destroyed by the US?
@kalb390 no they weren't destroyed by America they were destroying by the Democrats. Stop spreading hate on a forum meant to talk about the devastating situation my state is now facing. How heartless are you?
Thank you for your kindness from Afghanistan. I live here. I'm terrified this is bad
Hopefully everyone is already out, 15ft water going at 100MPH, is deadly
A lot of ppl can’t even afford to leave smh. The mayors and governor should have had a plan implemented to evacuate ppl via the bus system/greyhound or something smh.
Many chose to stay.
think its going to be like Helene... too many choosing to stay and not taking it seriously enough
Not good, they give free transportation for illegal immigrants from Texas to new York but cannot help move citizens across the state!
@vvohvaelez9277 I feel bad, 10ft of water moving at 100mph. Nothing will stand
We live in Orlando and we left yesterday. The closest place that had rooms available was Dunwoody, Georgia by Atlanta. The drive was annoying, but not horrendous. Mostly the slowdowns were from accidents or people getting off work like in Gainesville Florida. People drive like idiots and were weaving in and out of traffic. We came within inches of getting rear ended because idiots weren’t paying attention. Stay safe everyone.
Orlando doesn’t need to evacuate but you could have simply driven south to Miami it’s outside the cone.
There is always that one fool standing on the beach!
There is an interview of someone who says that his God told him to come to the shore with a boat.
@@AcidGubba🤦🏻♀️ people,dude…
@@AcidGubbahe must’ve forgot to take his meds
@@AcidGubbayou people are so full of hate please keep your opinions to yourself if you can't be nice right now. People like you make me sick
Adhere to the call to evacuate this is very serious, pray for Florida, may God protect you all.. best wishes from South Africa🙏🙏🙏
He's doing a lousy job of protecting the people.
"God" created the storm in the first place...right?
@@Danny451who our governor? What's wrong with you? Such hate during such a terrible and stressful time.
Thank you for your well wishes it's greatly appreciated
Praying for you all, Florida! 🙏
May Buddha protect them.
@@J_PIK Or Allah. Or one of the many other invented gods, that people believe in.
Thor rules!!!
Everyone has ran away, but theres always a reporter stood in the danger zone, then cries out for help?!?!
Stay safe. Prayers from Jamaica 🇯🇲 🙏 ❤
Thank you for your well wishes. I'm really scared. 😢
I read a news article showing a simulation of something very similar happening in Tampa. It showed that it would leave the bay of Tampa bay 15ft under water. I hope and pray everyone has gotten out of there.
Prayers and Love from Michigan
PRAYING 🙏 FOR ALL
Спаси и помилуй Господь!❤
I sent some prayers too. Well, I've done my important part now, time for a cheeseburger.
Everything will be fine.
Thanks for keeping us informed
"What are you hearing from those residents there?" Um, there are no residents to hear from. They've evacuated.
I’ve been through several of them from cat 1 to cat 5.. the worst is in the eye the pressure is horrible your head feels like exploding ❗️
what? just lies
@@softjones3128McDonald’s is hiring.
Not how that works
Run forest run 🏃♂️
I'm more of a Lt.Dan guy myself! YOU CALL THIS A STORM!! IS THIS THE BEST YOU GOT!! AHHHHAAAHAHAHAH😂
@@Betteroffdead1 After that, shrimping was easy and I became a godzillionaire 🤣🤣🤣.
@@Betteroffdead1maybe your screen name suits you very well
@@dallasyap3064you sickening people making a joke out of this need to seriously step away from your keyboard for the next 24 hours
Pro tip…fill your vehicle with belongings you want to keep.
Then ride it out in a multi level parking garage.Bring enough food and water to survive for several days. It’s where all the news people stay to ride out storms.
Where do you go to the bathroom?
What if it went down? Then you gonna be in big trouble
@@jimmyjames6487 On the floor its an emergency situation thats the least of concerns
Good luck
Praying for Florida 🙏🙏🙏
Prayers for Florida 🙏🏽
No need for prayers as god is omniscient and already knew this would happen.
I'm setting my tent up on the beach in Tampa..
Not funny. God bless you.
OMG 🙏🙏🙏praying for u guys 🙏🙏🙏 stay strong 🙏🙏❤️
I too am sending some prayers. It makes me feel important.
Please do as your ask and get out asap…Thoughts and prayers from Donaghadee in Co Down..Northern Ireland ❤🙏🇬🇧🇺🇸
Even Godzilla's chickened out.
Let me safe America from every single of disaster please
Why do the news anchors always have a pen in their hand?
All weather reporters stay safe
let's we pray for all in Florida
No need for prayers. god is omniscient. He already knew this would happen.
Over 15ft waves that's approximately 2-3 stories high!
*Zero survivability*
Nature fights back!
Thank you 4 sharing😮😮
God bless you guys 🙏
Million flee Florida but only few stay and embrace Milton like a true Florida Man
What time (local) is Milton expected to hit Florida does anyone know ?
8pm
2 am est
@@nigelhinds7356 Thanks is this local Florida time ?
@@ariraquel4567 thanks
I imagine people fleeing in electric vehicles. Not good.
Meanwhile gas stations don't have gas..
they already know what to do it is not kind of ice where you'll go in a gas station and then good to go, ev owners tend to be more aware they would already evac sooner
@@noteverythingisaboutyouI bet the electric charger lines are even worse
@@noteverythingisaboutyou I just filled my truck up. i am learning first hand about the media lying. bunch of dummies
Electric cars will be catching on fire if hit by salt water 😏
if you don't have the luxury to leave, please hunker down...
GET YOUR SKATES ON KEIR 1ST CLASS FLIGHT DONT FORGET THE ARM BANDS
He kept referencing hurricane Ian wasn't it hellena that just went through?
Ian was worst for Florida I guess. The other storm caused damage in Florida but destroyed North Carolina.
Ian went through Fort Myers in 2022, Helene hit northern Florida and the panhandle. 2 different storms but Fort Myers is still cleaning up from the hurricane 2 years ago.
Any chance Milton will be nearing Maralago?
hopefully your bozo governer takes all the federal support needed
What about hospitals and elder care homes? Did they get evacuated?
The hospitals are placing their patients on the highest floors. As for nursing homes, I'm not sure. Most of those are single floor dwellings 😢
I work at a nursing home in Ft. Myers and our patients were evacuated yesterday
@@lynclark6877❤❤🙏
Animal shelters!?😢
The strays 💔
No
The title mistakenly gave me some joy when I read “Miltons flee Florida…”
God have mercy on us Sinners 🙏🙏🙏
Oh my.....
Amen.
How stupid
This is just the beginning
Hmmm
Will see you at work tomorrow right
LORD Jesus Christ,we're praying for everyone's safety🙏🙏🙏
Be afraid, be very afraid.
nah
I can only hope everybody did leave my God. This looks bad and it feels bad inside. What is going to be left if anything and God help you people
The bad news is the hurricane don’t have areas it could be far west to be destroyed or by the beach.. you never know.
Floridians are late taking the hurricane warnings seriously. Most of us knew about climate change 30 years ago.
Keep your mouth shut and help reduce the greenhouse effect.
shut up with the climate change BS.
Climate modification...man made..weaponized.
Chinese factories produce the more co2 emissions. This is why we need to vote for trump who wants to end our dependence on foreign made goods which would allow us to enact our own green energy solutions as well as end our funding to over seas wars.
@@Wtvrflotesurgoat I bet you gonna fill your front door with China made cheap Halloween decorations all over.
Climate refugees. We're going to need a wall ...
Why aren't you reporting any international storm aid to America? Surely there must be some?
Why is it that so important for you to have that reported?
We help everyone else, but no one is there to help us except ourselves. We’re the global superpower, we’re supposed to be able to handle it, right? 😢
USA rarely accepts disaster help from other countries. 😮
There are 1000 Canadian linemen restoring power in NC as we speak.
@@BeerMetal58 THis... hundreds of trucks from Canada helping to restore the lines.
Surf up dude
Terrifying 😢. Yes many will die, be prepared for what is most important -- our eternal future. Jesus pleads for all to repent and be saved through Him. He cares more than we know. He alone gives eternal life. John 14:1-6 ❤❤
Jesus Christ give it a rest.
@@jdocean1😂😂😅
@@jdocean1disturbing your demons?
❤❤❤
Good stay out of
No sorry for the highly obnoxious humans who live in Florida, but immensely sorry for all beautiful, humble, and innocent Animals.
I pray for the residents of Florida, its Republican leadership not at all.😡😡
God has the power over the storms and have warn men to repent! for the
Kingdom of heaven is at hand, however the Bible declares they won’t
repent…
Revelation 16:9: "And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glorious glory
Thats all fiction, and you know it
pets????
Our heavenly Father is in control. We ask for your forgiveness and repent for our sins. Please help us and protect others that need help. Thank you for your love, mercy and grace. Holy spirit rain love upon us. In Jesus mighty name amen
Помоги Господи люди твоя!
lol... what a loser..
I do NOT come into agreement with this storm! In the Name of Jesus, I command the winds to be still and the waters to be calm! I pray a hedge of protection over all of Florida in Jesus’s Name! Amen
What if it was for God's glory? What if Jesus wanted the people of Tampa to repent? We should pray that we make it through and then praise him for all of this as we made it out of the storm so that the people may repents and turn to him.
This ain't gonna work
Delusional people.
@@portalofsoul8429 Why? Are you saying he want us to suffer?
@@jdocean1 Oh, you mean, there is no Jesus at all?
God can’t save you
With that attitude He might not save you.
You’re a simple minded clown.
God can do anything because he is in your imagination
🧸🙏Amen
I love everyone! I love you guys
I’ll say a week of clothing..
Many choose to stay they must be vaccinated 💀
You got it backwards actually
Man trying to occupy Mars but could not stop a hurricane coming.... quite ironic.....
You will never stop a hurricane, a tornado, a tsunami, a heat wave, a massive snow storm..but..it's important to understand since animals and even cavemen did. Learn to adapt and live with nature, which translates to....DONT LIVE WHERE MASSIVE HURRICANES HIT ON A REGULAR BASIS! pretty obvious it's not all of mankind, only the dumb ones, but that's also called natural selection
Just how do you stop a force of nature???
Just get out of its way
Why cant the hurricanes be stopped before they start ?
Who can Stop God😢
That is in God's job description.
you have Aang's number?
What a stupid comment
It's a storm, how are you suppose to stop an act of nature.....
God please save our land and people
Do you seriously think God just scrolls through youtube comments all day?
If Margie 4 toes is right about the Lasers causing the hurricane, then why can't she just unplug the laser and make the hurricane go away? Asking for a friend.
Because this is real life not a Marvel movie
Tough storms? Geo engineered storms more like it.
“Geo engineered.” 😂🤣
Only idiots think that’s true.
@@Me97202weather modification is a well established fact used for a number of different reasons to influence weather conditions.
@@brailrice state one of these claims where a hurricane was created by human engineering
Anything to avoid admitting climate change is real, right?
@@BeerMetal58the climate has been changing ever since there has been a climate. Nothing to do with mankind's existence.
You are children of GOD! Pray in the name of Jesus Christ that God will give grace to you / all of us! Praise be to God and Jesus Christ! God watch over and protect you! Maranatha
Luke 21:25 springs to mind. This is scary stuff indeed.

Closed due to Hurricane Milton. Ha ha ha, could it be that some of the customers of that business don't know that a hurricane is coming?
Desantis needs to go.
Hope your not driving an electric vehicle trying to flee because in situations like this well let’s just say it won’t be good 🙄
Thank you God for giving us this hurricane.....in the name of Jesus Lord.
I think Trump and DeSatan should leave Florida maybe god would not send such bad weather their way.
Hey, listen to our president. You must be vaccinated before you leave
This is still hours away
The coverage seems over the top
Go and use your resources to actually help people
The Days of Noah: Warnings
The time near His return to earth, Jesus declared, “As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all” (Luke 17:26-27).
which has what to do with a Hurricane?
I've lost 7 pairs of ripped undies,2 favourite teddy bears,can someone tell me if there are any rescue teams going if they able to save my ripped undies and bears they are sentimental value to me 😫
No. I hope you can swim, since all the funding for the rescue teams went to Ukraine.
My god that would be a good time to go shoplifting
Good luck with a flat screen tv with water to your waist.
