Good luck to the NS crew heading to help out in Florida ahead of #hurricaneMilton.
Crews from Florida came to our aid after hurricane Fiona, so we're happy to see @nspowerinc return the favour.
#Milton is now a 180 mph CAT 5. Hurricane Warnings and Storm Surge Warnings are in effect for all of our west coast. Some weakening is likely on its approach to Florida, but the storm is expected to be a large and powerful hurricane at landfall. Life threatening storm surge of up to 10 to 15 feet will occur at the coast with major impacts inland from hurricane force winds. Take this storm seriously.
This is the last sentence on the 5pm Hurricane Milton discussion from the National Hurricane Center.
"Residents in Florida should closely follow the orders from their local emergency management officials, as Milton has the potential to be one of the most destructive hurricanes on record for west-central Florida."
