The emergency is clear, even dramatic: Hurricane Milton arrives immediately after the devastating Hurricane Helene. The image that testifies to the gravity of the moment is that of a well-known meteorologist. The weather expert of the television station NBC 6 South Florida was in fact moved, crying live, speaking of the imminent catastrophe for the American state of Florida. Milton ranges on the hurricane scale, from 4 to 5. John Morales was trying to describe the effects of the hurricane when his voice began to falter. «It’s an incredible, incredible hurricane! The pressure dropped by 50 millibars in ten hours.” Thousands of people are already being evacuated in Florida.
New aid from California
The hurricane from the Gulf of Mexico is approaching the west coast of Florida. It is expected to touch down on Wednesday evening local time. California sent more than 140 firefighters and other support personnel to Florida after Helen’s passage. California stands with all those who lost loved ones, homes and livelihoods due to the devastating consequences of Hurricane Helene,” Newsom said. As Hurricane Milton approaches, California is sending additional specialized resources to support critical emergency response and recovery efforts.
