National Hurricane Center (NHC) described Hurricane Milton as “extremely powerful”, adding, it is expected to “reach Florida on Wednesday night”.
Hurricane Milton will reach Florida some days after the coastal State suffered severe impacts following Hurricane Helene.
According to Jean-Pierre: “Given the projected trajectory and strength of Hurricane Milton, @POTUS is postponing his trip to Germany and Angola in order to oversee preparations for and the response to Hurricane Milton, in addition to the ongoing response to the impacts of Hurricane Helene.”
