Three million lose power and mains water cut in major city as Hurricane Milton batters Florida

Hurricane Milton has torn through Florida, bringing tornadoes, floods, and storm surges.

More than three million homes and businesses are without power, and there have been “a number of deaths” reported on the Atlantic coast.

In St Petersburg, on the west coast of the state, the water supply has been cut, a crane crashed into a newspaper building, and the roof of a Major League Baseball stadium was ripped off.

Some parts of the state are having 1-in-1000 year amounts of rain.

Milton is moving into the Atlantic, but will still produce hurricane-force winds and heavy rain over land.

Emergency services in Florida say it’s too dangerous to respond to some calls.
