Tropical Storm Milton is expected to be a hurricane by Sunday, threatening the Tampa metro and surrounding areas as a potential Category 3 storm.According to FOX Weather , on its current track, Milton would arrive at the Florida Peninsula around Wednesday, although winds could increase late on Tuesday. Well in advance of the storm, waves of heavy precipitation are forecast beginning Sunday, especially in Central and South Florida.
Norcross says it's too early to predict how much storm surge this system could generate on Florida's West Coast, as it'll depend on Milton's track and where it makes landfall in western Florida. But it will be significant and dangerous."In some areas, it will likely be higher than in Hurricane Helene," Norcross said. "It's critical that everybody in Central and South Florida stay well-informed since things are developing quickly.
