Florida’s largest power company, Duke Energy, is urging caution to residents as they clean up debris left by Hurricane Milton. The company warns that live power lines could be concealed beneath the rubble, posing a serious safety risk.
Melissa Seixas, Florida president of Duke Energy, emphasized the importance of avoiding debris where overhead wires may be present. She explained that these power lines may not exhibit typical warning signs like sparking or hissing, making them a silent but deadly hazard for untrained individuals.
