Milton Aftermath: Moving off Florida’s east coast as a Category 1 storm

Hurricane Milton slammed into Florida as a Category 3 storm, bringing powerful winds, heavy rain and tornadoes to much of the Gulf Coast, including communities already battered by deadly Hurricane Helene. By Thursday morning, Milton - weakened, but still dangerous - was moving off Florida’s east coast as a Category 1 storm, with maximum sustained winds of 85 mph (137 kph), the National Hurricane Center said. It was 75 miles (120 kilometers) east-northeast of Cape Canaveral around 8 a.m. Hurricane, tropical storm and storm surge warnings were discontinued for Florida’s west coast and Milton was expected to move farther from the peninsula and to the north of the Bahamas.
Tornadoes touched down across the state before the storm made landfall. The Spanish Lakes Country Club near Fort Pierce, on Florida’s Atlantic Coast, was hit particularly hard, with homes destroyed. Four people were killed, according to the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office.
