because the gusts of wind that you'll see during these live shots there are just too strong to put those first responders back on the road, so the waiting until the winds calm and they expect that will be soon to get out and try to answer some of these calls we know that tens of thousands of people who live in this part of the state across central florida, toward the east or without out power of the 2 million across the state, without power. and we're expecting significant because of what we saw in ian flooding in certain areas. now, there had been those reports we have seen some video on social media, but not until the sun comes up. will we see the true legacy? of hurricane milton for orange county and osceola county, the shelters and osceola county are full. they were told they're at capacity thousands are in shelters here in orange county. and we're waiting to see just how bad this storm has been. let me

send it back into erica hill, my colleague, who's in new york yeah, victor, the daylight certainly will tell us a lot as victor said, america hill here in new york, as we continue to follow these developments, hurricane milton has been tearing across the state of florida for hours now, initially making landfall near siesta key to the south of tampa and st petersburg. >> and what we are starting to understand and he is what was left behind by those destructive winds by the rain. you can see some of the pictures here that's the roof or what's left of the roof on tropicana field, which is the home stadium of the tampa bay rays, majorly baseball team. that roof now in tatters, it was one of the only non retractable roof swell. now it is open what's really important to note here as you see all those cots this is the stadium that was prepped earlier in the week to be used as a base camp for emergency responders. tampa's fire chief says the danger posed by milton's winds. now prompting officials to stop emergency services as you just heard from

victor there in orlando, similar in tampa? you have to wait until it is of course, safe for first responders to be back out there on the ground and really the danger is on full display in st. petersburg. take a look at these pictures. that's a crane that came crashing down into a building other parts of it ending up on the streets of the wind. of course, one of the major threats of this storm the hurricane itself spawn more than two dozen tornadoes, including on the east side of the state and st. lucie county. the sheriff says there have been multiple fatalities after a tornado tore through a retirement community. cnn meteorologist chad myers is in the weather center with the very latest on the storm's movement we talk about those those tornadoes in the fact that they were popping up early on chat, not where we were looking at the storm initially, that really i think had a lot of people sitting up and paying attention absolutely. >> i mean, typically, when you look at a something spinning out of a hurricane, it's

waterspout that comes on land those were not waterspouts. those were ef-3s and maybe even an ef-4 tornado that was on the ground out of a super cell thunderstorm, just like you would see in the great plains, a very rare event and a tragic loss of life there in st. lucie county who will have to look at that tomorrow, of course, because they're not releasing anything to us today. then as you head winds out of the west at 107, that pushed the water into your community. so to punt a gorda sorted fort myers, there was a lot of flooding south of the landfall not northern landfall because the wind was blowing the other way that st. pete and st. pete beach over 100 miles per hour with gusts there and on top of the tropicana field i would suspect because the wind goes up with height in a hurricane, you it might have been talking about gust of 110 to 115. and think about why a plane flies. because the top of the wing is farther around the bottom of the wing and it gets faster because of that little foil there. well, that's probably

what happened with that too. the winds on top of that tropicana field likely exceeded 120 miles per hour. st. petersburg 18 inches of rain today alone, and then all the way over toward lakeland, we still have the flash flood emergency going on there. the rain continues just to the east of orlando as you saw with victor look at this stripe of purple. now there's no white in here. white would indicate more than 20 inches of rain, but i've large area here of greater than ten inches over the entire state from east to west, all the way across the state. and it's still raining in some places, the rain will continue. so will the wind that we've really kind of calm things down right now, here's the latest from hurricane center, haven't even seen it yet, 85 miles per hour updates every hour on the hour now, because we're on land not every three hours like it does when it's just out in the ocean. so we're down to 85. that's some good news that even seen a gust for 85 over anything, but it's not out of the question that that's still

could happen today and into tonight. now, by morning, by the time the sun comes up, the center of this storm is in the ocean. it's long gone, but the damage will have already been done and the problem is at this point time we don't know how much damage that is we don't know whether casey key road down here in takoma scott over washed and washed away homes. we don't have those pictures. it's still dark, can't even get there. so it's going to take some time to truly realize what the damage that this storm did. and obviously the loss of life is the tragic part to me me because of those tornadoes that no one expected. yes. there was a tornado watch and yes, there probably should have been an ef-1 or maybe even an ef-2 tornado, but not something that completely tears up a community erica. >> yeah, terrebonne, it really is. chad. appreciate it. thank you. i want to hand things back over to victor blackwell, who is in orlando at this hour. victor

these wind gusts are getting pretty loud it's not really the heaviest of what we've seen and we saw a 70 before mile an hour gusts at orlando international airport strongest, sustained about 40 miles per hour. >> so there had been stronger winds here, but right now, we're seeing that gust top out around 35 to 40 miles per hour let me head down to tampa and our colleague, brian todd, who has been watching that area what are you seeing? >> because at some point you are seeing a bit of calm. and then at other moments you seeing fierce winds and rain give us an idea what you're seeing now to brian >> well, the city now collectively feels like it's just taken a barrage of punches from a heavyweight fight or and it's still trying to get up off the campus. we are on the canvas excuse me. we're still getting a little bit of rain here. the right is now tapering off, but i can tell you that the rain was hitting us pretty much steadily for i think close to 13 hours, probably more and at its height, it was violent,

it was relentless and it was very dangerous. and that part of it lasted for several hours. we are finally getting maybe our first break in this as far as just the actual weather event that is hitting us in a few hours daylight will break and then the first responders will be out there already going to be starting to get out before daylight to try to get an assessment of the damage, tried to get to where they need to go, maybe conduct if they have to conduct any water rescues or anything like that, there'll be starting to do that very soon. this has become obviously a power outage event at roughly 400,000 customers here in hillsborough county are without power that has affected water usage. water facilities, water processing facilities treatment plants, and other things that they have been suffering some power outages they are working to get those back online. but in the meantime, they are asking residents to limit their water use for at least the next few hours while they work on that. it's just again, a deceptively dangerous period here. it's calm now, there's just a few

sprinkles left. you think that it was just a normal rain about if you are just out on the street right now. but it's very deceptive. there's still a lot of ponding on the roads these deep culverts of water that people try to drive through. that's when they get hurt and gets stuck so again, just these are some of the most dangerous and deceptive periods of a major hurricane is when the brunt of it has passed. you and people start to think that they can venture out. they really cannot do that. as a matter of fact, officials here in hillsborough and nearby counties have been telling people in the shelters hundreds of thousands of people in the shelters to stay in the shelters for the next few hours, don't go out yet until officials have a chance to fan out and get their assessments and get back to you as far as when you can get back to your homes, so victor, i know you're taking the brunt of it where you are and i know how relentless that can be because we just went through it and these people here are just going to wake up in a few hours to try to embrace some of the

reality of what's happened here. >> all right. brian todd for us there in tampa, makes a good point that daylight is the first opportunity for first responders for police to get out and see it you at home should stay there until you get the all clear from local authorities. >> let's bring it now, jennifer hovered with the national weather service who can give us an idea. >> i mean, jennifer, it's really picked up here in orlando and central florida, the rain and wind in the last couple of minutes give us an idea of how long it will be like this here. and the forecast for, for milton as it moves east well, we went through the i a few hours ago and it was a good three to four hours of just intense frequent hurricane strength, gusts and it was it was quite a battering

this is erica hill joining you from new york and victor is having a hard time with all those wins there as we look at, at what is coming, this will likely be, will be gone by the time on the east coast, by the time a lot of folks wake up, but there will still be a little bit of rain coming. i mean, what is that window as this slowly moves out >> over here on the east coast of fleurus or the west coast, sorry, so we're pretty much you know, we're wrapping it up on our side of the state. >> the east coast will have to continue through the morning with the rain torrential rainfall we've just seen crazy amounts of rainfall that have happened. water rescues are occurring just from the flooding rains, not from storm surge, but they will have to contend with those continued rains, those three-point wind gusts through the morning as it continues to push off the east coast you talked about all

those reins to these flash flood warnings? i know i was just speaking with folks in in tampa short time ago. that was a major concern there. these flash floods, just the incredible amount of rain and my colleague chad myers going through 18 inches in st. petersburg. there's the flash flooding concern. there's also where does all that water go? >> yes we are expecting it to major river flooding to be occurring over the next week or so, is all of that rainfall that occurred today is going to be gradually draining into our rivers we have also had historic crests that we're expecting on several area rivers. so it's going to be a while with all well, if the water that fell from the sky today that we're gonna be dealing with through at least the next week and you mentioned it, jennifer, you mentioned water rescues can you tell me more about those rescues where they were? >> how many, if you know? >> we, have them occurring in pinellas county. i'm not sure how many but we had reports of

freshwater flooding up to people's wastes in their homes across portions of pinellas county. and that's where that 18 plus inches of rain fell? >> right? in st. petersburg. they're also that there were any of these in the barrier islands because there's barrier islands to before obviously getting over to the area where st. petersburg is in pinellas county. those were really at high risk they were at very high risk. >> but the water rescues that are currently happening are not a barrier islands that we're aware of in terms of being able to stage for that knowing that those could happen. do you have a sense of how many how many vehicles or even available for those high-water rescues? >> i don't we have so much help. that's coming in from out-of-state, out of country, even for all types of rescues. and so it is very heartening to see all of the help that we're receiving that we have received after helene just the fact that

we've had to go through this two weeks in a row with two back-to-back storms has been quite exhausting and quite you know stressful yeah. >> exhausting, stressful to call it a lot is a gross understatement as you point out though, what is heartening to see all of that help coming in. we know there's a lot of help as well that is staged and ready to move in once it is safe to do so so that will be coming in as well. jennifer hubbard joining us, ruskin, florida really appreciate you joining us at this hour. much more to come here as our coverage continues, as we follow the path of milton across florida, victor blackwell is in orlando. victor, i think maybe you can hear me again. i know those winds and rain are making it a little tough sometimes yeah. air considering all that we're facing with these storms that are passing through. but yes, i can hear you and we'll be checking with our teams in this immediate area. the power has held as you can see what the lights around me, but we know there are tens of thousands

across this county and millions across this state without power. so we'll be checking with our teams as hurricane milton moves east and off the coast especially live coverage continues here on cnn, stay with us saleable these men of means with their silver spoons heating up the financial favors of the 1% what would become of them when they discover robinhood gold allows others to earn their very liberal rates on idle cash, unlimited deposit bomblets. susan tense some retirement, bashing they're seeing this chaos what does a robot know about love it takes a human to translate that leap in our hearts into something we can see and hold

nature made the number one pharmacist recommended vitamin and supplement brand orlando. >> as you can see, the wind and rain are really picking up as hurricane milton is moving closer to the east coast and soon off the shore, we just got an update that we're nearing 3 million customers without power across this state as these gust of wind have taken down trees, we know that there are concerns about flooding here in this county. we know that there have been calls for flooding, trees downed at least one roof down as well, but not until the sun comes up. we'll we get to see the real legacy of this storm for this part of the state and across all the florida. let's go to now, my colleague, randi kaye, who is in sarasota who saw what i'm feeling right now, just a bit ago, i give us an idea of what it's like there now. and the damage that you've

seen, some of these things collapsed in front of you, fences blow, give us idea of what milton has done yeah, victor, i feel for you because i know what you're going through and what is coming your way and it is it is significant so certainly brace yourself for all of it because we've been through it here on the west coast of florida here in sarasota, we saw the heavy winds, the heavy rains throughout the day, certainly throughout the evening, and into the overnight we saw, as you mentioned, a lot of the debris has been flying around here. >> this was a fence that was separating the property lines from where we are to the home next door, which is boarded up and evacuated. but this this just started flying around during the heaviest wins that we've seen came apart the entire fence just started blowing around here and then there was this other little tarp that was sort of covering this patio there. now that you can see is just all mangled there behind the fence. so we do know that here in this area

we are getting some reports of flash flooding. we also know that the majority of customers in sarasota county are without power. we've been without power now for several hours. we don't have any phone service either. so i would expect that a lot of those same a lot of the people here in this county are in the same boat that we are whether or not they're home to know that we just don't know. it's unclear how many people evacuated won't really know that until daybreak. can we get some light to survey the damage here? but there were certainly a lot of a lot of people who were concerned about what happened with helene they may have stayed behind and then they saw what happened with a lien so that they've decided to evacuate this time around for hurricane milton were only where i'm standing. we're only about 20 minutes or so. victor from from siesta key, where hurricane milton made landfall right near siesta key. so that's one of the barrier islands we know that the bridge to those barrier islands was closed at 7:00 p.m. the night before the storm hit. so it's still again unclear according

to the mayor of sarasota, if everyone had evacuated. so again, i think as soon as first responders can get into those areas and assess the damage, assess who may have been left behind, who may make people who may not have evacuated. we won't really know exactly what the toll is here in sarasota county and in downtown sarasota where we could see storm surge, they were expecting seven are expecting nine to 13 feet of storm surge. so we won't know again until daylight. so right now, we're just watching, waiting and hoping that it isn't too bad. victor all right. >> randi kaye for us there in sarasota we are all waiting for daylight to see the damage from milton. thanks so much let's go and stay actually in that area, not too far from landfall. howard tipton the town manager of longboat key, not too far from siesta key, give us an idea of what you know about the damage from the storm and give us an idea of what it looks

like there now well, good morning. we know that we had a top wind of around 110 miles an hour. and we're still waiting to see the surge damage, but we do know that the bridge that serves our southern entrance kind of m off of the ringling causeway going to say norman's and then over to longboat. that bridge was damaged and is unable to pass so we're evaluating the north entrance through bradenton beach to see how we can access the island give us a little bit more about the severity of that damage? how much do you know? >> yes the only thing we know is that the westbound look to have either collapsed or have been significantly damaged on the ringling causeway, the

lower bridge there it's an older bridge and really wasn't deemed safe for the team to take their vehicles over the eastbound lame and so treated. and are going to be talking what's a florida department of transportation about that bridge. but in the meantime looking at to go up through manatee county to see the bradenton beach access point and to see how that went? but otherwise, we have no other reports from the island. we have lost power and we really we think we were about 98% evacuated and so we don't really have any reports from the island communicate with any of those few who decided to ride the storm out

town manager of all, which is really about 17 miles south of siesta key where hurricane milton came ashore at a category three. so we are getting those reports of a bridge damage just getting into those few people who decided to stay. but again, when the sun comes up, we'll see just how bad that damage is we will continue our coverage here as things pick up in central florida, hurricane milton moving east, we'll be right back week and ask questions like, what does a comedy show doing on cnn too much but i want donald now, can you slice that

usc the 231231 you're watching cnn special live coverage of hurricane milton, the storm lashing and large swath of florida for hours. now, nearly 3 million people are without power across the state the storm making landfall near siesta key, just south of tampa and st. petersburg as a dangerous cold category three hurricane that happened before 9:00 p.m. eastern time. it's dumped more than a foot of rain in a number of areas. tampa hit particularly hard. part of the roof on tropicana field in st. petersburg, florida, coast to tampa. that's a home, of course, of the tampa bay rays baseball team. as you can see, that roof has shredded right off the building. and this is important as well because the building itself had been set up to be used as a base camp for emergency responders. some 10,000 cots ready to go there. it was going to be again, the base camp for emergency responders. so that now a question in terms of what

happens for those folks at one point, tampa had pulled us emergency responders off the roads as conditions continue to deteriorate, a lot of wind, flash, flood warnings in tampa as well. also in st. petersburg, not just the roof of that stadium. the trapping ripped off, ripped to shreds, but you can see here see the video our cnn crews captured. that's a crane down there now on the street came crashing down when into a building as well as hitting the street the hurricane turning deadly as well, spawning more than a dozen tornadoes, and more than two dozen the st. lucie sheriff says number of people were killed, unclear exactly how many, but noting that that happened when a tornado tore through a mobile home retirement community. more details, of course, on a lot of this will be coming to light once the sun does come up, cnn meteorologist chad myers is in the cnn weather center in atlanta for the very latest on the storm's movement. so making its way across the state, but it is not done with florida yet. chad no, not at

all. not even done with victor. i mean, we have now the backside of the eye itself, right over orlando where it's been raining now for hours and hours and hours. but i know i was just watching some of those pictures out of st. petersburg when it just looked like sheets of rain blowing across the streets at 85 or 90 miles per hour st petersburg itself picked up a foot and a half of rain today alone. so yes, even for lakeland, you picked up a lot of rain, flash flood emergency for you, which means flash flood is happening and it's happening all the way off toward the east as well. there's the rain, here's our victor blackwell right there. notice the backside of what was probably an spending i or maybe just an outer band, but that's now getting down to victor. and if he were with us earlier, every time the rain comes by, the wind picks up when the rain is subsides, the wind subsides. well now there's more rain for viktor here is the rainfall though across the state. this is what has happened. it's a radar estimate, but it's close

enough. everywhere. that's purple is more than ten inches of rainfall. it's okay if ten inches falls in his small little town are in some place rural. but when you put this much rain in county's worth of property there's no place for that water to run off. it is all going to just try to get into the lowest spots. that's why we think that there's probably going to be so many flooded roads by morning that you probably shouldn't be going out at night because it's very hard to see those flooded roads just looks like some water or maybe a wet road, but it's not it's feet of water out there. now the storm has pretty much done for the most part, it is going to get into the ocean, into the atlantic ocean in the next two or three hours, we will still have another two to three inches of rainfall still to come for some folks, but for the most part, we're kind of winding this down. the water is coming back into tampa bay and i know we talked about how tampa could get this big surge

that didn't happen because landfall was down here well south. so what happened all day is that the wind was blowing out of tampa bay, not in two tampa bay. >> the water was blowing into fort myers, into naples, into punter gorda. >> those are the places in venice. those are the places that flooded. those are the places that had surge. there is still a chance that we could get a hurricane force wind gust later iran tonight. but look how quickly this gets into the ocean and sayonara get out of here. were pretty much tired with this because we've had wind gusts. well in excess of 100 miles per hour in a large swath, not just one swath, but i mean, to go from venice to sarasota it's going to take you at least an hour-and-a-half , two probably drive that even without traffic. so that's how wide of an area had so much wind so much wind damage, 2.8 million or so people without power it's going to be weeks before everybody gets power because you've got 2.8 million people to get recovery, to get

recovered i mean, it's just that's a long duration and we have so many crews in north carolina, south carolina trying to put power lines back up there yeah. i was just thinking the same thing, chad. i mean, you get these two storms back back-to-back and we are still working on the recovery from one. it's a great point appreciate it. thank you. >> i want to hand things back over to victor in orlando, who as chad just noted, is now getting the backside of that eyewall of the storm looks a little bit more calm at this moment, victor, but we know there's still more to come, unfortunately fascinating phenomenon that because of where i am, this is the kind of hotel district at lakewood, a vista near the disney parks. there's some trees may a football field away, and i can hear the wind before it hits. so i'm actually pretty grateful that i know what's coming before it actually hits me. but the rain and the wind had been pretty consistent and i can hear another gust coming now so i

want to go now to sarasota and to and there it is to sarasota, to jordan hall, a storm chaser who's watching this storm and others, jordan give us an idea of what you saw at the storm when it was at its worst, and what you're seeing now yes, absolutely. >> so i started out in sarasota and then worked my way down to desantis and as milton made its final approach, it almost looked like 4 july with all the power lines arcing and exploding due to the trees and the debris that were flying into the lions men as milton made landfall, we noticed some storm surge really making its way in, especially there in that venice area. and that did quite a bit of damage as well. >> ahead of compared to hurricane ian of 2022. the most expensive storm ever to hit florida in reality,

now that it's here, how does the the reality of the storm compare to what was forecast just 24, 48 hours ago >> i mean, everything that was forecasted seems of their fight for the most part, except the storm surge is hopefully going to be on the lower end of that forecast. but i think something that really stood out today was the the large tornado outbreak on that went through the central florida that was very surprising. and i think caught a lot of people off guard yeah. >> and you're a storm chaser, so you've done this before. how does that compare to other hurricanes you've chased across florida >> know it was definitely very intense ics, specially on that southeast corner of the eye, but something i didn't know it was it was very dry coming into the eye and on that on the back side as well. so that

definitely wasn't limiting >> we lost jordan hall storm chaser, who worked his way from sarasota to venice beach we will continue our coverage of hurricane milton, still blowing and raining here in central florida will get you an update on those power outages across the state. >> as local authorities are waiting for these winds to calm to really go out and survey and assess the damage our coverage continues here on watching and then our world change tv on the edge sunday at nine on cnn they are trying to shut down this legal loophole

to a category one storm since making landfall just hours ago, we can tell you this point nearly 3 million customers in florida without power across the state. there are also issues about water. some areas have lost access to water. some of that is related to the power outage issue. emergency workers understandably at this hour deeming those conditions gins, it's still too unsafe for first responders to get out there. part of that is wind, part of that is flash flooding, part of it sometimes can be the dark as well so what happens in those moments? jules carl is riding out the storm. she's in steinhatchee says further north and the state's big bend region on the western side of the state north of where milton made landfall. but she is no stranger to hurricanes having written out hurricane idalia while pregnant last year, jewels joins me now with that hurricane baby, i believe i'm joe's good to have you with us. i'm so you had decided to ride this out. first of all, riding out alda i dahlia was one thing especially given just how hard hit

actually wasn't all that bad compared to helene that we had a couple of weeks ago. >> this one, thankfully, it seemed to go far enough south of us that we didn't get a whole lot more than rain and some heavy gus. i know there's some people in town dealing with pizzi gsd from helene that are freaking out every time they hear. when at all. but i think we managed to get lucky as far as milton goes were you concerned at one point though because as you mentioned, helene, right? >> i mean, talk about taking it a hit from helene just two weeks ago given what you experienced when made you decide to stay i think for us it was the fact that well, especially after helene, we knew that we weren't going to get water any higher than we did that time. i think we had like 23 foot surge in this town and my house is only about a foot from having water in it my mother-in-law's house and so we were just not that nervous about staying for this one

knowing that it was going to be far enough thousand we were getting the lighter side of the storm that was going to be pulling the water out as opposed to pushing it in when we weren't too concerned about it's more than storm surge and kind of stuff that you got to worry about right here. >> you mentioned that the ptsd that a number of your neighbors have. i mean, i would imagine you have a little bit of that to having to deal with so many storms in such a short period of time. what is it like as this is coming at you? again, even if it was further south this time. but knowing what you just went through two weeks ago, knowing what it happened a year ago it's a lot to weigh on. you it really was yeah. >> it's a lot to lay on anybody in this town were all kind of starting to suffer emotionally from it it's been really hard every time somebody here's another system or they heard that this was coming, it was people were starting to break down has anything changed that you've noticed among your neighbors or even for you in the way that you look at these storms. and whether you want to

be there i think a lot of my neighbors are not willing to ride this kind of thing out again, if it's coming toward them, whereas before it was like, will shelter in place. >> now a lot of people are like, i don't think i want to go through that again i myself used to be a tornado chaser and storm chasers. so it for me as far as the ptsd goes, i don't really have as much of that problem one in this town. a lot of people are really scared about it now, are you concerned about the increasing not only frequency, but also strength of these storms? >> yes absolutely. there just becoming monstrous the size of helene and then the strength and how fast mountain became a cat five, i think it was a matter of less than 24 hours yeah. it's getting scary how fast and how big these things are becoming, and how unpredictable they're becoming. and, you've. got the cone, but you see them, the wobbling a lot more now. and it's just getting harder to

trust the trust the spaghetti models in the past it's there's a lot going on there as you noted, and then how it did in course double so quickly in size, how quickly became a cat? >> five, you just tell me, before i let you go nearly 3 million people well, in florida are without power at this hour. do you still have power we do, fortunately, yes. >> i don't think anybody here or no, i take it back. there was one person one part of town that i did here it lost power but some of us still didn't have power back from the last one yet. so the state, like i used to live in flagler palm coast area and that they've lost power and then seeing what going on with my friends over there. but no, here for the most part, it didn't do too much damage to our power grid all right. >> so now you have to continue the cleanup from helene from two weeks ago, as you pointed out, to try to exactly have jewels. glad to hear though that you and your little one

and your family are safe and let's hope that there is not anything else coming your way. appreciate it. thank you thank you. want to hand things back over now to my colleague, victor blackwell in orlando again. but as you noted, i luckily you get a little bit of a warning thanks to the trees behind you, victor, when these gusts are coming through >> they've been coming through pretty quickly and quick succession here on the topic of power outages, we've been checking with local authorities here and utility companies, an additional 10,000 customers lost power in just the last few minutes. so those numbers, we're expecting to continue to grow as the winds pick up here and they've been the report to those trees down. let's check back in now with randi kaye, who is in in sarasota. randi. i understand that you are in a moment of calm, at least your word last time we checked in,

hopefully those roads are still clear because authorities do not want people out checking on the damage. what are you seeing around you yeah. >> exactly. victor, the roads are still pretty quiet here. we have seen just a couple of emergency vehicles, but the neighborhood that we're in is pretty dark and pretty quiet. but one reason why they don't want people out it's something like this. we were here earlier and this is a piece of, this is a fan blade there was a ceiling fan up on the patty, up on the deck, right above me that came flying off during the storm. so that's one of the reasons because why you have to, you have to evacuate and you have to be careful where you go. during the storm. this is some of the fence that was separating our yard where we are from the neighbor's yard. and this fence just blew apart during the storm and some of it had was airborne we're very concerned about projectiles and pieces of furniture and fencing and other items becoming projectiles and harming people. so that's why people were told to evacuate. i do want to just

mention siesta key where we are about 20 minutes or so from siesta key. that is the barrier island off sarasota, where hurricane milton made landfall just nearby that i i wanted to share this story of this woman who we met just before the storm came through. she said that her husband had written out helene on siesta key just a couple of weeks ago, and they had been watching the weather like a lot of people do is, you know, victor, they watch it. they think that okay, it's not going to get us and they stayed he stayed put evacuated and he ended up with five feet of water. he was chest-deep in water. he had to swim in the dark of night to another house where he could get to higher ground and then had to swim and back to their house. the house was completely destroyed. all of their there's mold all over, so they've had to they're going to have to gut that house. but there was all of their belongings were destroyed. so when you think good about milton coming across siesta key

and making landfall right near siesta key. i just think about what if everybody hadn't evacuated there and we just don't no. night had asked the mayor if if everybody had evacuated from those barrier islands and she wasn't able to say for sure. so that's a big question because if this storm was worse than helene at that barrier island and we heard that story from that woman about her husband at siesta key. you can only imagine what those people might have gone through. victor yeah, we just heard from the town manager of longboat key the town manager of longboat key. that's not too far from where you are, just south of siesta key they're bridge had been damaged and there were the majority of people who left the barrier island, but still some people on there. so they'll be trying to get in contact with them as well. sara soda is being covered by my colleague randi kaye take in throughout the morning that will take a quick break now, as the winds and

rain continue here in central florida, the calm that they're seeing on the west coast. we're not feeling on the central part of this state and it certainly isn't what they're feeling out east will continue the coverage of hurricane milton right here live on cnn a hallways working on a project while loading up our suv, one extra push. and for so we schedule that safe flight.com. we were able to track our technician and you know exactly when he'd arrived we could keep working safely, came to us. >> i am kendrick with the replacement. >> we could trust that service the way we want it. >> giuffre mobile service. now, at safe flight.com we pay. >> you're safe. they are trying to shut down this legal loophole to get 100 milligram generic viagra or 20 milligram generic sialic delivered to your door for just $0.87 in

boy, there car. south lucie county are reporting multiple fatalities following tornado spawned by hurricane milton, search and rescue efforts are ongoing after one tornado ripped through a mobile home retirement community, the st. lucie county sheriff spoke with cnn about the devastation the first wave of this storm, milton came through. >> our areas, not used to seeing any kind of tornado activity we had one tornado pop up. it actually struck our sheriff's office taking out a 10,000 square-foot red iron structure that was housing all of our emergency equipment in preparation for hurricane milton. shortly after that, maybe 20 minutes later all of our alarms have gone off or the messages came out there are deputies reported at least visually seeing six tornados on the ground ripping through our county and northern direction

leaving hundreds of homes devastated completely totaled and unfortunately struck retirement community that was mainly modular homes where we did have loss of life and we have crews on scene right now working through the hurricane conditions that we're facing right now to rescue anybody who is still inside there. >> i mean, these these trailers are just devastated their lives if it off their foundation we're not going to get into how many, but i can tell you it's more than one person who's lost their life that we've already recovered. begin, we're focusing right now on getting all of our resources in there to rescue those those individuals that could be trapped inside these homes, the loss of life that we're focusing on it is a mobile home community that's a 55 but in older communities, so we have elderly folks in there. >> we have the type of construction. >> it just it went right through the middle of this community and it left a path of destruction there i think that was a county sheriff there from

st. lucie county, which of course is on the east coast of florida. i do want to send things back to victor blackwell, who's there in a more central part of the state in orlando dealing with this backside of that storm as it continues? he's to make its way east across the state we've been reporting for the last several hours, that orlando police fire rescue and orange county sheriff's office they pulled their rescue crews from the streets because the winds were too strong. >> but as you've seen, we've seen stronger winds over the last 2030 minutes or so in those last 30 minutes, they've tweeted that they have their crews back on the streets so we should expect that there will be updates about the severity of the damage and potentially flooding across this part of the state. i'm not sure how long they'll be out on the road if there the threshold is these 40 mile per hour gusts

because we've seen more of those in the last few minutes then we have four some time before that. so i'm not for how long they'll be on the roads, but they've seen enough that they're going to be out there tweeting actually video out of their vehicles there, officers, their deputies, going around and surveying the damage. so they're responding to calls. i'm not sure for how long, but we should get some updates. on the damage here in orange county will continue our live special coverage of hurricane milton in just a minute. stay with us >> you may want to book a lot
