Tropical Storm Warning in Georgia as Hurricane Milton Hits Florida's Gulf Coast
Georgia's coast is under a tropical storm warning as Hurricane Milton made landfall on Florida's Gulf Coast on Wednesday. While most of Georgia is expected to avoid severe impacts, areas in the far southeast may experience 30-40 mph winds and 2 to 6 inches of rain, raising concerns of flash flooding, particularly in low-lying areas. Governor Brian Kemp advised residents to prepare for potential power outages and road blockages, while many evacuees from Florida have sought refuge in Georgia, filling hotels and campgrounds.
