SITUATION OVERVIEW
------------------
Hurricane Milton remains a major Category 5 hurricane over the
southwestern Gulf of Mexico. It is forecast to remain at or near major
hurricane strength as it approaches the west coast of Florida by the
middle of the week.
The following are the primary hazards of concern with Hurricane Milton
for South Florida:
* Storm Surge - There is an increasing risk of dangerous storm surge
for portions of the Florida Gulf Coast. 4 to 7 feet of storm surge
over portions of coastal Collier County and 3 to 5 feet over portions
of Mainland Monroe County Wednesday night into Thursday.
* Rainfall - Heavy rainfall leading to possible flooding is expected
across South Florida through much of this week. 4 to 6 inches of
additional rainfall is possible through Saturday with highest totals
across coastal Southwest Florida. Isolated locations could experience
up to 8 inches with the heavier rain. A Flood Watch is in effect for
the entire area through Thursday morning. Flash Flooding cannot be
ruled out.
* Wind - The highest probabilities for sustained hurricane and
tropical storm force winds will be along the Gulf coast of Southwest
Florida, including Glades, Hendry and Collier, and adjacent Gulf
waters. Tropical storm force winds are also possible across the rest
of South Florida, including the Atlantic coast and adjacent Atlantic
waters, especially in conjunction with Milton`s rainbands.
* Tornadoes - An isolated tornado threat associated with Milton may
develop Tuesday night through Wednesday with a focus across portions
of the western Florida Peninsula.
POTENTIAL IMPACTS
-----------------
* SURGE:
Protect against life-threatening surge having possible extensive
impacts across coastal Southwest Florida. Potential impacts in
this area include:
- Large areas of deep inundation with storm surge flooding
accentuated by battering waves. Structural damage to buildings,
with several washing away. Damage compounded by floating
debris. Locations may be uninhabitable for an extended period.
- Large sections of near-shore escape routes and secondary roads
washed out or severely flooded. Flood control systems and
barriers may become stressed.
- Severe beach erosion with significant dune loss.
- Major damage to marinas, docks, boardwalks, and piers. Many
small craft broken away from moorings, especially in
unprotected anchorages with some lifted onshore and stranded.
Also, protect against locally hazardous surge having possible
significant impacts across far south Miami Dade County.
Elsewhere across South Florida, little to no impact is anticipated.
* WIND:
Protect against life-threatening wind having possible extensive
impacts across Southwest Florida. Potential impacts in
this area include:
- Considerable roof damage to sturdy buildings, with some having
window, door, and garage door failures leading to structural
damage. Mobile homes severely damaged, with some destroyed.
Damage accentuated by airborne projectiles. Locations may be
uninhabitable for weeks.
- Many large trees snapped or uprooted along with fences and
roadway signs blown over.
- Some roads impassable from large debris, and more within urban
or heavily wooded places. Several bridges, causeways, and
access routes impassable.
- Large areas with power and communications outages.
Also, protect against dangerous wind having possible limited to
significant impacts across the remainder of South Florida
including the east coast metropolitan region.
* FLOODING RAIN:
Protect against life-threatening rainfall flooding having possible
extensive impacts across South Florida. Potential
impacts include:
- Major rainfall flooding may prompt many evacuations and rescues.
- Ditches and canals may rapidly overflow their banks in multiple
places. Flood control systems and barriers may become stressed.
- Flood waters can enter many structures within multiple
communities, some structures becoming uninhabitable or washed
away. Many places where flood waters may cover escape routes.
Streets, parking lots and underpasses become submerged. Driving
conditions become dangerous. Many road and bridge closures with
some weakened or washed out.
* TORNADOES:
Protect against a tornado event having possible limited impacts
across South Florida. Potential impacts include:
- The occurrence of isolated tornadoes can hinder the execution
of emergency plans during tropical events.
- A few places may experience tornado damage, along with power
and communications disruptions.
- Locations could realize roofs peeled off buildings, mobile
homes pushed off foundations or overturned, large tree tops and
branches snapped off, shallow-rooted trees knocked over, moving
vehicles blown off roads, and small boats pulled from moorings.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS
----------------------------------
* EVACUATIONS:
Follow the advice of local officials.
* OTHER PREPAREDNESS INFORMATION:
Now is the time to complete all preparations to protect life and
property in accordance with your emergency plan. Ensure you are in a
safe location before the onset of strong winds or possible flooding.
Keep cell phones well charged. Cell phone chargers for automobiles
can be helpful, but be aware of your risk for deadly carbon monoxide
poisoning if your car is left idling in a garage or other poorly
ventilated area.
Storm surge is the leading killer associated with tropical storms and
hurricanes! Make sure you are in a safe area away from the surge
zone. Even if you are not in a surge-prone area, you could find
yourself cutoff by flood waters during and after the storm. Heed
evacuation orders issued by the local authorities.
Closely monitor weather.gov, NOAA Weather radio or local news outlets
for official storm information. Be ready to adapt to possible changes
to the forecast. Ensure you have multiple ways to receive weather
warnings.
