Hurricane Milton lashes Florida with fierce winds, floods, tornadoes & millions left in the dark
SUMMARY: Hurricane Milton has caused extensive damage in Florida, affecting over 3 million residents with power outages and severe flooding. Flood warnings are widespread, especially after tornadoes touched down, resulting in at least two fatalities and destruction of around 100 homes in St. Lucie County. The storm’s high winds damaged the roof of Tropicana Field, which had been used as a temporary shelter. As residents evacuate, many are seeking refuge in neighboring states and struggling to find accommodations. Recovery efforts are underway, with significant impacts reported in Fort Myers, where standing water and storm surge have compounded the destruction.
Hurricane Milton brought powerful winds, a deadly storm surge and flooding to much of Florida after making landfall along the Gulf Coast as a Category 3 storm. It weakened to a Category 1 storm as it moved through Florida early Thursday. Power outages were widespread and deaths have been reported from severe weather.

Fayetteville residents disturbed after deadly shooting at nearby sports pub
SUMMARY: A man was shot and killed in the parking lot of the Big Apple restaurant early this morning, alarming local residents. The incident, which occurred before 2 a.m., woke nearby resident Mary Bowen, who noted this is not the first shooting in the area. While the police have yet to make arrests, residents expressed concerns about escalating violence in the neighborhood. Mary suggested closing the bar or relocating it to reduce disturbances, as fights and gunshots have become more frequent. Local business owners, like Jose Diaz, acknowledged the bar’s popularity but lamented the sad turn of events.
One military widow said that the community has changed significantly in the 34 years she’s lived there.

Polls: Candidates can’t shake each other in North Carolina | North Carolina
SUMMARY: Donald Trump holds a slight polling lead over Kamala Harris in North Carolina, with 48.2%-47.3% and 48.7%-48.2% margins from Project 538 and RealClear Polling. Both candidates are in a toss-up position as early in-person voting starts next week, with Election Day approaching in 25 days. North Carolina is a critical battleground state worth 16 electoral votes, essential for both candidates to secure victory. Historically, Trump has outperformed polling in the state, winning previously against Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton despite being in close races. Key recent polls reflect a competitive landscape as Trump and Harris campaign intensively.
