At least 10 people were killed in Florida as tornadoes from Hurricane Milton ripped through the state, officials said on Thursday.
More than 3 million homes and businesses in Florida were without power after the storm, Milton was downgraded to a post-tropical cyclone on Thursday. It made landfall late Wednesday as an “extremely dangerous” Category 3 storm near Siesta Key.
The roof of Tropicana Field, home to the Tampa Bay Rays, was ripped off by severe winds.
Milton is currently moving northeast off Florida’s coast and continues to pack 75 m.p.h. winds, the National Hurricane Center said in its 4 p.m. ET update.
“There is a danger of life-threatening storm surge along the coast from east-central Florida northward to southern Georgia,” meteorologists said.
