Hurricane Milton Starting to Move Inland - Extreme Wind Warning Issued For EyeWall





Like I've been saying, as this eyewall moves through Florida, people need to shelter from it like they would from a tornado - small central room (or hallway) on the lowest floor of a sturdy house or other strong building, away from any windows or any doors that lead to the outside. Might not hurt to shield your body in case of any falling or flying debris, especially your head/neck. It is expected to stay at hurricane strength even after it moves well inland, so winds of 75 mph or greater in the eyewall. Right now the winds are sustained at 120 mph. 



7:19 PM - And what would a storm be without some buffoonish whooping and hollering . . . ?  

(This tangent really went down the drain, and with the light of a new day, I deleted most of it.)
