Jim Cantore in Tampa as Hurricane Milton Continues to Grow
SUMMARY: As Hurricane Milton approaches, the situation in Tampa Bay raises concerns due to the extensive debris left in the area. The direction of the stormโtoward the north or southโwill significantly impact storm surge but not necessarily wind intensity. Winds could reach Category 3 levels, exceeding 110-120 mph, turning debris into dangerous projectiles. Tampa Bay is preparing by shutting down infrastructure to protect water and electricity services ahead of Milton’s arrival, possibly starting tomorrow. The local community must remain vigilant, as the storm’s impact is yet uncertain. Meteorologist Jim Cantore provides this crucial update.
The Weather Channel Meteorologist Jim Cantore reports from Tampa, Florida where he said the area could see winds of Category Three strength well over 110, 120 miles per hour as Hurricane Milton continues to grow. With this storm so close to Hurricane Helene, there is a dangerous prospect of getting a lot of debris blowing around and creating new problems. Credit: The Weather Channel // Date: 10/7/2024
