Hurricane Milton has left a trail of destruction across Florida, particularly affecting the Tampa Bay area, where record flooding has been reported in several neighborhoods not typically prone to such disasters. As rivers rise and flood warnings remain in effect for numerous waterways, communities are bracing for further challenges. Residents have been forced out of their homes due to rapidly rising water levels, and ongoing water rescues have been necessary as many neighborhoods remain submerged and without power. The St. Johns River has reached significant flooding levels, reminiscent of past storms, and the aftermath continues to unfold with rivers expected to take time to recede. As recovery efforts begin, the emotional toll on residents and rescuers is palpable, with officials working diligently to provide support in the face of this natural disaster.
