Dave Elias: Tampa Bay Reporter gives an update on Hurricane Milton before it makes landfall

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - Un pódcast de Newstalk ZB - Martes

Hurricane Milton has more than doubled in size as it heads towards land in Florida.   Its wind field extends around 400 kilometres from the centre.   It is still a Category 4 hurricane and is expected to make landfall later today.  Officials have warned life-threatening storm surge, destructive winds and flooding will happen.   Reporter Dave Elias in Fort Myers told Mike Hosking the rapid intensification that occurred with Milton was unlike anything they’ve seen.   He said that whether or not it slows down before hitting the Gulf Coast remains to be seen, but that’s what everyone in the region is hoping for.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
