Hurricane Milton Causes Extensive Damage to Tropicana Field
Hurricane Milton has wreaked havoc in Florida, particularly on the Tropicana Field stadium, home of the Tampa Bay Rays. The powerful storm made landfall, ripping off large portions of the stadium's roof with wind gusts reaching 105 mph. Video footage shows dramatic scenes as sections of the fabric roof were shredded and torn away, exposing the interior to the elements. Emergency services have been suspended and the stadium has been transformed into a base camp for first responders. The damage has led to the cancellation of an NBA preseason game, highlighting the hurricane's disruptive impact across the region. As residents continue to assess the destruction caused by Milton, the scene remains one of devastation in downtown St. Petersburg.
