Tropical Storm Milton: Track, Expected Strength at Landfall
SUMMARY: Tropical Storm Milton has formed in the Gulf of Mexico and is expected to strengthen into a major Category 3 hurricane before hitting Florida on Wednesday. Currently with 40 mph winds, Milton’s conditions are favorable for intensification due to warm waters and low wind shear. Forecasts indicate a direct impact near Tampa Bay, raising concerns about significant storm surge, reminiscent of Hurricane Ian’s devastation in 2022. The area has not faced a major hurricane since 1921. Additional storms, including Hurricane Kirk and Leslie, are being monitored, with another system potentially developing from Africa next week.
