The Danger Remains<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“Milton” began its path in the Gulf of Mexico, reaching the western coast of Florida. Despite the hurricane weakening to Category 1, its winds, reaching speeds of up to 150 km\/h (93 mph), are still dangerous. The devastating impact has been felt by residents of the eastern coast of the state, where fatalities and house destructions have been reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Destructive Consequences: Fatalities and Damage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Particularly severe consequences were recorded in St. Lucie County, where local authorities reported the loss of lives. Sheriff Keith Pearson confirmed the discovery of several bodies, noting that hundreds of homes were damaged or destroyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
