Hurricane Milton is going to be "deadly and catastrophic", officials are warning, as millions leave Florida ahead of the storm’s arrival
Florida Governor, Ron DeSantis, has been speaking in what will be his last briefing before Hurricane Milton makes landfall late on Wednesday night.
“51 counties remain under a state of emergency but authorities are "prepared and we will respond”, he said.
He adds "there is still hope" Milton could weaken further before it reaches Florida after it was downgraded to a category four storm earlier by the National Hurricane Center.
