Hurricane Milton: Catastrophic
The time is up for Floridians to evacuate. Hurricane Milton has shifted south with landfall expected to be somewhere just south of Tampa.
As of 4 am, the Category 5 storm has 160 mph winds and is moving ESE at 12 mph.
All of the tracks have Hurricane Milton making landfall in the Tampa Bay area, but the storm could shift further south and open up Southeast Florida to hurricane-force winds.
There are approximately 37,000 linemen ready to help restore electricity.
Miami International Airport is the only major airport fully open, but that could all change if Milton shifts further south.
