- One of the strongest Atlantic hurricanes on record in heading toward Florida as millions of people are under an evacuation order. Milton quickly strengthened from a tropical storm to a category 5 hurricane within 24 hours. Milton is expected hit Florida’s west coast as a major hurricane, making landfall late Wednesday or early Thursday. The storm could bring 5-10 inches of rain, 10-15 feet storm surge and over 110 mph winds.
Please people, if your in the danger zone, GET OUT. Property can be replaced, lives can't. This isnt something you want to be trapped in your house when no-one can rescue you for days, at least. Im from Australia watching all the live coverage of Milton & it brings tears to my eye's. Reminds me of Katrina. Please leave ppl, or youll regret it as you take your last breath. Sorry to say, but if a meteorologist is in tears, that's telling you something. Don't leave it too late & then regret not leaving.
Tampa's mayor has flat out said: Staying means you are probably going to die. 😢
You’re correct.
Some people don’t have the means to evacuate even if they want to, that’s part of the problem. Properties like homes can’t always be replaced either! Most of us here in FL don’t have homeowners insurance because of either it being too expensive, OR insurance companies drop our policies and won’t offer homeowners insurance anymore. A lot of insurance companies dropped and/or refuse to cover properties after hurricane Ian back in 2022! There are VERY FEW insurance companies that will offer coverage, but the cost has TRIPLED to pay! They’ve made it unaffordable for us!
@@shayshaymann113 just go to ur homes that are quality build. And prepare for 3 days of food and medicine for emergency it will not last long 3 to 2 days max of it.. Philippines experience it yearly. Floating device, item that will make loud noise for rescue
@@mapogocoalition4534 no! This is NOT your regular hurricane. Don't tell people to stay dummy! How could you do such an irresponsible and dangerous thing? What's the matter with you? If the people you are telling to stay die, how will you feel then? I guess you will not be feeling anything if you stay anyways.
DO NOT LEAVE YOUR ANIMALS BEHIND!
If it comes down to me saving a human life of an animals life ima saving a human life first before anything. You can get another poodle or a cat.
@@TankbossKayDee One can always adopt another human from the shelter as well.
@@jackiemansfield8325which shelter is that im interested in
@@TankbossKayDeeIf you have control and CAN bring the animal without getting harmed, then take it! A life is a life, animal or human.
This is why I left FL
Back to back storms, back to back stress, back to back to preps…then add in exploding insurance costs, if you can get it, plus rising taxes, and quality of life going down down down as congested roads became the norm. I left at the end of 2018, and you couldn’t pay me to go back.
It's a human zoo.
Where do you live now ? Am moving out of Florida soon😊

Virginia, on the east side of the Blue Ridge. There is state income tax, but I save enough on insurance to not mind. You’ll have to look at your own situation, of course. And we do get floods, but I did research into flood zones and with topographical maps. My town has had two tornadoes, but down in the valley, not in the hills. A group of citizens organized and got the county and cities on board to create a line of parks and trails along the river in the valley to help mitigate flood damage in the towns. And we do get snow and ice. If you hate cold, it would be uncomfortable for you. I love Fall and Winter, and it is much better than in the northern states: less snowfall, less deep cold days.
I researched for a year across the US, and finally found a place to meet my desires and spouse’s requirements. Good Luck!
Back in the 90's there was a mandatory evacuation for Jacksonville, Florida. So we tried to get out on US1 North. It took us *12 hours* to JUST get to Waycross Georgia!!! If it had of hit Jacksonville, like they thought we wouldn't have made it:) But it didn't. Our kids could walk to the convenience store to get snacks, FASTER than we could move! It was quite an experience. May God be with you all as you evacuate. ❤ And our house was robbed while we were gone:/
Praying for Florida
I don't understand why people take so long to leave danger zones
We were just in a huge hurricane Helene, I’m sure you saw the destruction from it, it was one week ago.
You telling me and people still taking on Trump and his stupid talk instead of the moving out with their family early
Better to stay home and defend your homes. The democrats are absolutely licking their chops to seize damaged propertys and turn it over to illegals.
Tell me about it 🤦♀️
@@Candy-O1776 If you are poor, you can't simply pack up and go.
Lord please have mercy l pray Lord Lord have mercy
I'm praying for you in Toronto 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hope there’s at least gasoline. Hotels are full from the last storm and travelers will need to go a long way. I wonder if there’s even food.
Imagine the people with electric vehicles
More evacuation lanes should be opened!
I can’t understand why (in spite of its inherent beauty) people choose to live in locations that invite regular natural disasters.
My family re-located to Florida in 1973 and a few members still live down there to this day. It used to be that these were periodic events that folks would prepare for and could anticipate. There have always been exceptional killer hurricanes but the storms these days seem to me to be more frequent and more dangerous than ever…
Have a care folks and:
Vote BLUE
If desatan wasn't so focused on drag story time the state would be in much better shape and better prepared.
Floridian here, 100% agree. hes too busy being on television telling everybody what a great job hes doing. instead of you know, actually doing the job
Amen Brother!
Back to back hurricane is no joke.
If this storm was never in the Atlantic, why is it an Atlantic hurricane? I certainly hope that no one thinks they should stay for their pets. Find a way to get out.
The Gulf of Mexico is a sea basin attached to the Atlantic Ocean. Think of it as a large branch on a tree.
@@karenklores2439 You mean ocean basin.
@lyndon isn’t sea another word for ocean? Same thing
I wondered the same thing! So I looked it up and from what I can gather back in the day, there was the Great War. No, not the Christian war against Islam, and just about everyone else, that's still going on, but the war between the Gulf God and the Atlantic God.
Now the Gulf God, being smaller and more compact and muscular than the Atlantic God, should have whooped the big, fat, lazy, Atlantic God's butt however, the Gulf God had a few major flaws in his make up: Gulf God was gay, believed in democratic principles, freedom of choice and to top it off, he was an immigrant - Gulf God was from Mexico. Or maybe it was Guatemala, no, probably Venezuela, definitely Ecuador but Haiti is a possibility too. Bigly.
Anyway, the Atlantic God has friends in low places Palm Beach, Tallahassee, Austin, the Supreme Court. The usual suspects. And so it was that the Atlantic God went to the alter, took a knee and kissed the ring of DeSatan. And the Word came down from the Mount. Thou Shalt Not Say Gulf.
@@SavedByJesus-pi3yu nope. The sea is a smaller body of water and is more shallow, mostly surrounding an island, The ocean is a larger body of water and is too deep not even us humans know how deep it is. But didn't you do basic geography in school?
Leave Florida and don't go back ever!
What is going to happen to the homeless people? Are they going to be rescued? God help them!!!
It's not coming from the open Atlantic. It's from the Gulf of Mexico
I said the same thing….
now does it make a difference? No, NONE.
Now Does it make a difference?? No,NONE.
People who are poor, do not have the ability to pack and leave. Where are they going to go, with what money.
@@racheleaston7937 Fema / just like the immigrants $$$$ to help our people first
I would take a greyhound going north to stay with a friend or relative if that's within the means.
Lord Jesus will intervene if His people pray. Jesus can turn this hurricane from category 5 to category 1 in no time. I believe. How many of you pray with me?
I'm praying
bible thumpers - the ones who hang around claiming to solve everything while achieving nothing.
@demophys4883 At least they are being positive. What are you doing,!
@@demophys4883 Meanwhile… churches are the ones giving aid to NC and are always the quiet ones helping others. They will heal you if you ever need it. ✌🏽
I'm going to be praying
When the call for evacuation. FEMA should pay them to help evacuation.
And everyone including FEMA would be one step ahead.
@@Optimus-x7f 100%
Ever wonder if a Cat 6 would be possible?? Scientist think it's possible in the near future and Milton came close: "The study proposes adding a Category 6 for hurricanes with sustained winds exceeding 192 miles per hour. However, this is only a proposal and the official scale has not been modified, meaning Category 5 is the highest".
Keep voting Republican and this will happen more often. Climate change is real FL
Is terrifying to watch how bad Milton is the fact that people still in the area ismind blowing.
I BLAME THE PEOPLE WHO MADE FAKE CLOUDS AND RAIN.?? THEY PLAYED WITH MOTHER NATURE. COULD THIS BE TO BLAME???I'm totally sorry for this .many poor people are there,stuck where do they all go?.
I
He said ATLANTIC hurricanes hey guy. It’s a Gulf of Mexico hurricane cone on seriously
We pray.
Wow that looks scary 😨
And the shaking continues (Hebrews 12:25 to the end). How are your "treasures" taking the shaking? Our Creator is graciously giving us warning.😢
🙄.
Amen. I have reason to believe the trib started on feast of trumpets. It is to start on a feast of trumpets one year. UN had a meeting (covenant with the many) on that day where they revised agreement saying USA and others can no longer veto a vote, before if the votes said one thing, the USA could veto and go against it and it’s saved Isreal a few times but no more according to the revision. This may or may not be the covenant with the many although I am sure “the many” is the UN. Scripture says the first horseman is white but represents false peace, he has a bow with no arrows and a crown of olive branch leaves similar to the symbol for UN. We will see 3.5 hrs from now if the abomination of desolation sits in the temple, hind site is 20/220. Only those with wisdom will understand
Edit: we will see 3.5 years from now, not hours, I don’t have an edit option
Evacuate now.
Why stay ? There will be no power, no water, no internet.
look, there will be more than PLENTY of water for sure Sir.
Please 🙏 what is the code to give Uber drivers to get you out of Florida????
Hurricane Katrina all over again! People,if you can please leave! I will be praying for you all!🙏
People are slowly learning to pay attention to advance warnings. Wonder how many will try to “ride it out” this time though.
ONLY IDIOTS!!
Did you see the news about Governor DeSantis ignoring the vice president of the United States? (10/7) Very disturbing that he would do that when we rely heavily on the federal government with FEMA. FEMA pays out billions and billions of dollars for relief efforts and our governor ignores her? What is going on with him? He did the same thing when hurricane Ian hit Fort Myers Beach. President Biden had to step in and get things going because he wouldn’t. That is DeSantis. What is wrong with him?
he is stupid. Simple as that.
Shes not the president, he did speak to president Biden so dont worry he spoke to the President!
Did you see the news about fema not having any MONEY!!??
@@janicenakonechny3674lies,he said no one called him except Biden
@@user-tj7nb9fu9t explain to me how you come to this conclusion. Actually, no, don't bother.
Insane!
Atlantic hurricane? I thought it formed in Gulf?
Gulf belongs to the Atlantic Ocean
HAARP
BINGO!
oh good, ANOTHER conspiracy theory for the ignorant to clamp onto.
$100 says the huge navy weather warfare ship is somewhere near Tampa

Bonjour good morning😂❤
rchacon39 I saw a couple of them stopping the traffic lane miles and miles long bc their batteries were discharged after some 4 to 5 hours standing almost still on their way out of the city.
My Christ, why do people chose to live there still?
🙏🙏🙏
Trump- drill drill drill what a complete idiot. When he was president he said he wouldn't give aid to states that didn't vote for him😂😂 💙pray for everyones safety 🙏🙏
You’re slow🤣🤣
Hope are they supposed to evacuate when roads are bumper to bumper and the stations have zero gas!!!
The road shoulders are open to traffic to help with the bumper to bumper problem. We were told to buy gas yesterday and the stations had gas yesterday. There will still be gas deliveries today. It may take a while to evacuate but there is enough time to make it safely out of Dodge.
I never let My tank get below half. I tell people to do the same.
This is no time for a bad comedy, why roll a Kamala clip?
Kamilla Harris please stay in Tampa …
Y’all saw what happened with the Katrina the gov does not care get out
Is Waffle House closed? Like generally.
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I'm hearing of people stranded along us hwy 19 98. I live in Horseshoe bch. I can house a family for shelter from the storm. If you know someone in need. Msg me I can help some
End of world is here get right with ur higher power
I’m cooked😃
Worthless utube - they are a copy of other sites and opinions
They should call this hurricane kamala
No sht she is shredding Maga, Trump is terrified of her since he knows he's going to lose bigly orange pigly.. LMAO
Well she does destroy republicons 😂 and Florida is very red😮
@@drexlspivey3047 Mara Lago is going to get it, so Kamala would be a perfect name.
That's cold ❄ children & animals are innocent .

Geoengineered!
more ignorance and credulity.
@@demophys4883 A wide variety of scientific tests and operational weather modification projects have been performed in many countries. The largest programs have been in the United States, the former Soviet Union, Australia, and France.
The feds CAN make it rain, its called cloud seeding. However, creating the high and low pressure differential to start and keep the air spinning to form a hurricane, generating lightning, controlling winds and temperature, directing the storm once its formed to target a specific area is lunatic thinking. Besides the Feds not being able to do anything right, if the feds could target a hurricane, Milton would be hitting Mar A Lago, not Tampa. If the feds could generate hurricanes and more importantly control them once formed, Tehran, Pyongyang, Beijing and Moscow would have been wiped off the map a long time ago and, we wouldn't be perfecting Alien anti gravitational propulsion for use in our atmosphere and performing autopsies on little green men at Area 51.
Do you have an opinion on why the Saudi Arabians, the Israelis and California are struggling to bring fresh water to their lands ? Why don't they just geoengineer some water ?? 😆🤣😆🤣😜😜😜 Derrr...

No one cares
Go to Disneyland
Closed, you’re so funny. They are due to get it too.
As a lifelong Tampa resident I'm staying put, as are most of my neighbors... My wife and kids went to her sister's in Atlanta but my friends and I want to be able to say we rode it out like every other storm.
Bragging rights...awesome decision. I think you should ride it out outside the entire time.
We know you are tough and brave. Why can't you leave until the storm passes and then come back and help with rescue and clean up? At least no one will have to rescue you from the top of a house or worse!
Ok and what if you die? Now your kids won’t have a father
Your decision is selfish and childish. This is NOT like every other storm. Your kids need you alive, and how will they feel if you die just because you wanted to have fun and look cool to others. Grow up and be responsible for your family dummy.
Please go be with your wife and kids.
Did you take Ukraine flag with you running away? Maybe you will need to wave with it...
what the hell are you talking about? Are you crazy?
No, I'm just sorry for you Americans, I'm trying to help you, and I know how much you love Ukraine and how much it comforts you, so in this difficult time....wave their flags a little like you've been doing for the last two years, maybe you make yourself happy. Maybe Zelenski can help you, he's a comedian by profession and plays the piano with his penis, isn't that wonderful?

Do not be naive.. that is man made.. you guys leave in a mediatic bubble that control your mind and thoughts

Wait for crowd to disapate, then evacuate. You can drive right out and have the road to yourself
yeah, after the storm hits.
@@totomorenodosal No. Before the storm hits. The road are clear after all the scared stupid people are gone. As I previously stated. Pay attention.
