Power and other utilities continue to slowly be restored across Florida after Hurricane Milton’s less than 12-hour trek across the state, leaving behind more than 4 million without electricity at its peak and neighborhoods flooded. Milton is being blamed for at least 17 deaths across eight counties in Florida. Hurricane Milton became a powerful Category 5 hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico before making landfall near Sarasota on Wednesday as a Category 3 on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. #milton #hurricane #florida #recovery #weather #weathernews Watch more FOX Weather videos: We’ve got you covered!
