HELP PEOPLE AFFECTED BY HURRICANE HELENE HERE
More than 3 million people are without power and more than 100 rescue missions are underway Thursday in Florida after Hurricane Milton made landfall near Siesta Key last night as a Category 3 storm, generating tornadoes that left four people dead in St. Lucie County.
Duke Energy President Melissa Seixas told "Fox & Friends" that more 800,000 of its customers are without power across 35 counties in the state. In St. Petersburg, where the roof was torn off the Tampa Bay Rays' Tropicana Field, 18 inches of rain was recorded over a 24-hour span, according to FOX Weather.
Milton's catastrophic landfall came barely two weeks after Hurricane Helene, which battered Florida before causing further devastation in North Carolina. Florida residents have spent the interim boarding up windows and evacuating their homes in preparation for Milton.
