あらすじ・解説
In this episode of Storm Watch, we dive into the escalating danger of Hurricane Milton, a storm that has intensified at a record pace, growing from a tropical storm to a Category 5 hurricane in just over 24 hours. With sustained winds of 180 mph, Milton is poised to become one of the most powerful hurricanes ever recorded in the Atlantic, threatening the Gulf Coast and Florida with catastrophic impacts.
Join us as we discuss the science behind Milton’s rapid intensification, the potential effects of climate change on hurricane behavior, and the unfolding evacuation efforts in Florida. We’ll provide the latest updates from officials, including the dire warnings from Tampa’s mayor and Florida’s governor, and explore the life-threatening hazards Milton poses—from massive storm surges to destructive winds, torrential rain, and tornadoes.
With millions evacuating, shelters opening across the state, and federal resources on high alert, this episode will give you a clear picture of the ongoing preparations and what to expect as Milton barrels toward the coast.
