Hurricane Milton made landfall near Sarasota along Florida's west coast Wednesday night, knocking out power for nearly 3 million people. Fatalities and injuries were reported.

Hurricane Milton strengthened as it churned through the Gulf of Mexico toward Florida on Tuesday and could wallop one of the state’s major population centers with huge storm surges, lashing rain and destructive winds just two weeks after deadly Hurricane Helene swamped the coastline.

Hurricane Milton plowed through Florida, where at least four people are dead and millions are impacted by power outages.
