When Hurricane Milton made landfall on the evening of Wednesday, Oct. 9, millions of people lost access to power and water. At one point, 3.2 million had lost power in the state, and 1.7 million of them were on the Gulf Coast.

About two million customers in Florida have already lost power Wednesday night from Hurricane Milton, which made landfall near Siesta Key in Sarasota County before cutting across the middle of the state.

Nearly 2.5 million people are without power after Hurricane Milton swept through Florida on Wednesday and Thursday. The storm made landfall in the state on Wednesday night. On Thursday morning, the storm left Florida through its east coast and headed toward the Sargasso Sea in the Atlantic Ocean.

Hurricane Milton caused an estimated $1.5 billion to $2.5 billion in damage to Florida's crops and agricultural infrastructure, according to a preliminary assessment released by the state's Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services on Thursday.

A man was arrested Wednesday for threatening utility workers who were restoring power in Hillsborough County, Florida, following mass outages caused by Hurricane Milton, according to officials. Crews were working on a road repair when the man allegedly verbally threatened them and drove his vehicle toward them in an intimidating manner.

I would like all the people in Florida to let you know we are thinking about you," said Head Coach Paul Maurice.

The National Weather Service confirmed three additional tornadoes touched down in Florida during Hurricane Milton.

Carter and Danielle McMasters sheltered in a bathroom closet with their two kids as a tornado ripped through their Wellington neighborhood.
