What to know as Florida residents begin cleaning up after Hurricane Milton

Cleanup from Hurricane Milton is underway as residents are returning home after the storm barreled across Florida. The storm spawned tornadoes, knocked out power to millions, damaged homes and led to hundreds of rescues. At least 10 people died in the storm and there was significant damage in some areas. Still, the storm wasn’t as bad as had been feared. Milton roared into Florida on Wednesday evening as some communities were still dealing with damage from devastating Hurricane Helene two weeks ago. Milton made landfall near Siesta Key, some 70 miles south of the Tampa Bay area.
