The latest forecast from the National Hurricane Center has put the Tampa Bay area on high alert as Hurricane Milton is on a collision course with Florida. If the current track holds, Milton could make landfall in the Tampa Bay area on Wednesday evening, potentially marking a historic event.
The National Weather Service in Tampa has issued a warning, stating that if the storm stays on its current path, it could be the most significant storm to hit the Tampa area in over a century. The last major hurricane to come close to Tampa was an unnamed storm in 1921, which passed just north of the city as a Category 3 hurricane.
