Another
big seastorm named Ist Milton has been growing in the Gulf of Mexico
and is forecasted to make landfall in Florida late Wednesday. It has
been less than two weeks since Florida was hit by the former seastorm,
Ist Helene, and cleanup is still underway. Another storm coming so soon
is overwhelming.
While Helene was only a rung 4 ist, Milton has already grown to become
a rung 5 ist. Warnings have been put out for an 8-12 foot rise in
seawater near Tampa Bay owing to the storm. Calls have been made for
folks living near the seashore to flee and get to higher ground.
Leaders in Florida have said it is a must that cleanup from Helene be done
before Milton hits.
The last big storm not only did great harm to Florida but also further
inland all the way up into the Appalachian barrows throughout North
Carolina and even Tennessee. The death toll from Helene is now up to
nearly 250, with many more folks still missing. If folks living in
Florida cannot get ready fast enough, there may be even more bane
coming.
