Hurricane Milton rapidly strengthened into a Category 4 hurricane Monday on a path toward Florida population centers including Tampa and Orlando, threatening a dangerous storm surge in Tampa Bay and setting the stage for potential mass evacuations less than two weeks after a catastrophic Hurricane Helene swamped the coastline.
Officials said they are preparing for the largest evacuation since Hurricane Irma in 2017 when about 7 million Floridians left their homes.
I looked few other path prediction and whatnot. Seems like most of them got hurricanes at CAT3 when it hit the coast. It just show CAT4/5 during the middle of the gulf. I don’t know much about hurricanes but maybe it’s just sensational headline?
Probably a CAT 4 or strong CAT 3 at landfall.
Update:
Well fuck…
People don’t think global warming be like that, but it do.
