Devastating Hurricane Milton Continues to Move Toward Florida, Weather Conditions Could Be Worst in America in 100 Years

Arab Weather - The latest weather observations of the devastating Hurricane Milton, reported by Arab Weather, indicate that it is located near latitude 23.8 north and longitude 86.0 west, and Milton is still moving northeast at a speed of (19 km/h) as it is expected to continue moving northeast on Thursday and Friday and reach land along the west-central coast of Florida late tonight and early Thursday morning off the east coast of Florida.

Hurricane Milton is accompanied by destructive winds with maximum speeds of 260 km/h, after regaining its strength and developing again into a Category 5 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale, after the atmospheric pressure in the center of the hurricane dropped again to about 914 millibars. The strong winds accompanying the hurricane are expected to raise waves to more than 10 meters, which threatens to flood areas near the coast with water moving inland from the beach, which may reach a height of 15 feet in some areas in the state of Florida.

Hurricane Milton also poses a real risk of flooding and inundating coastal areas with massive rainfall expected to exceed 500 mm in some parts of the central and northern Florida peninsula through Thursday. This poses a risk of flash flooding and catastrophic flooding that threatens the lives of many Florida residents, forcing thousands of residents to evacuate to safer places.

The following are the latest weather observations received by Arab Weather for Hurricane Milton:

• Location 23.8 North 86.0 West.
• About 330 km west-southwest of the Tortugas.
• About 585 km southwest of Tampa Florida.
• Maximum sustained winds 260 km/h.
• Current movement is northeast at 19 km/h.
• Minimum atmospheric pressure 914 millibars.
