Hurricane milton exploded in Strength Today with winds topping 180 miles per hour. It is now expected to make landfall late wednesday or early thursday. Check out this ominous view of Milton Today from the international space station. Forecasters say if it stays on its current track, this will be the worst storm to hit the Tampa Area in more than a century. Floridas governor declared an emergency for much of the State Warning residents, especially those vulnerable to its potential 15foot Surge of seawater to evacuate as soon as possible. Look at this. The roads already jammed. Now, all this as many floridians are still recovering from the impact of Hurricane Helene just 11 days ago. Well get to the new Storm Track in a moment here we begin with Cbss Tom Hanson in tampa. Good evening, tom. Reporter hey, norah. Good evening to you. Talking about the Storm Surge that you mentioned, if that were to hit right where im standing, i would be well under water. Take a look at tampa from above. You can see that the city is surrounded by inlets just like this one. Once the storm hits, all of that water has to go somewhere. As Milton Menaces florida, millions are under mandatory evacuation orders. This is the storm of the century. Reporter now the West Coast of florida is bracing for another Lifethreatening Storm just 11 days after helene. Its expected to make landfall in tampa, and nearly half the city is being told to get out. I cant put my officers lives in danger to come out for somebody that didnt evacuate in the peak of the Storm Surge. So take the heed and evacuate now. Reporter with the State Of Emergency declared in 51 counties, residents are once again assembling their Emergency Kits and gathering supplies. Waiting in long lines for sandbagging and even longer lines for gas. Cbs news was at tampa general hospital, the only level 1 Trauma Center in the area, as this wall was installed before Hurricane Helene. That barrier protected the hospital from 4 feet of Flooding But Milton could bring up to 15 feet. We have layers of protections that we are going through, but its still a little bit nerveracking to prepare for something like this with the current projection. Im Cristian Benavides on north reddington beach, a Barrier Island Community where debris from Hurricane Helene still lines the streets. Here they are going from cleaning up to bracing for impact. Reporter across the county, communities are getting ready. In this st. Petersburg neighborhood, more than 80 of homes were flooded by helenes historic Storm Surge. What does your neighborhood look like right now . It looks like a war zone. Its really sad. People have lost everything. You can see their memories sitting on the side of the road. And its just decimated. Reporter officials are worried debris, loose pieces of wood and metal, could clog Storm Drains and turn into dangerous projectiles when milton links landfall. Here in north redington beach, entire homes were engulfed by the ocean during Hurricane Helene. Now residents like John Davis are worried about whats next. Well, i hope its not going to directly hit here. Thats my hope. Reporter but if it does . If it does, i think its going to have devastating effects. Reporter not long ago, we heard sirens going off, meaning that everyone here needs to get out now. We are under a hurricane warning, a Storm Surge warning. And here, under a mandatory evacuation order. Norah . Norah Cristian Benavides, to see those pictures, my goodness. And tom hanson, thank you both for being here. Now for the forecast, Cbss Lonnie Quinn has got some new information about Miltons Track and the timing. Lonnie, what are you seeing . I see a monster. I think this is the biggest storm any of us have potentially ever seen, at least one of the biggest weve ever seen. You know its huge when the picture behind me shows key largo, 600 miles from where the storm is, and its terrible out there. If you look at the Vantage Point from high up above, and we look down on our country, watch this. The storm, just like helene, is filling up the entire gulf of mexico. This storm is bigger. Look at the stats. This is stuff that just came in. Not only is it a category 5, went from a 1 to a 5 in a matter of hours, it just got stronger. Winds are blowing at 180 miles per hour. The strongest weve ever recorded in the atlantic basin, Hurricane Alan back in 1980, had 190mileperhour winds. I see more warm water ahead. This could actually strengthen. I think it can weaken before it comes on shore as of 4 or 3 late wednesday, early thursday. Take a look at how all eyes on tampa, florida. Look at the spaghetti models. Weve got a lot to choose from. Right now, its showing a true track, about 90 are in line with it coming right into tampa. Zoom in tight there. You need to look at this. If it goes right where my foot is, it would be just north of tampa but that would put all the Storm Surge into Tampa And Tampa bay is directly under that number 48. It would be, i used this analogy before, its like the water has nowhere to go. Like taking a gallon of water and pouring it into a dixie cup. Youre going to fill it up and it will Bubble Up and Bubble Up and Bubble Up. For everybody in that area, if this holds true, its the worst Storm Youve ever seen, norah. Norah this storm is a beast.
