SUMMARY: Hurricane Milton remains a powerful Category 5 storm with sustained winds of 160 mph and gusts up to 195 mph, moving at 14 mph towards Florida. It is expected to make landfall tonight as a Category 4 hurricane, affecting areas from Tampa to Orlando with strong winds, storm surges of 10-15 feet, and heavy flooding rains. The potential landfall in Sarasota could mitigate impacts for Tampa, but residents should remain cautious. Rainfall could cause significant flooding in northern regions. Following Milton’s departure, a cool front will bring reduced temperatures and pleasant weather next week, with highs in the 70s and cool mornings.
