Milton is being sheared and entraining dry air, and continues to weaken. At this point anyone in Florida needs to be in shelters, too late to do anything. Still lots of rotation in the thunderstorms in the vicinity of Very Beach and the south end east coasts.
Landfall is now expected in the next few hours, perhaps around 8pm ET.
For those north of the GA/FL border things look on track for this to not be a bad event. The notes from this morning still seem valid. Going to be a long night in Florida, hopefully the weakening trends continue.
Note: there is absolutely no indication the storm is, can, or will turn north. It’s on track, ignore the rumors and fear mongering.
Thank you.
