Hurricane Milton, a Category 3 storm, made landfall Wednesday night near Siesta Key, Fla., a city about 70 miles south of Tampa. As the storm made its way through Tampa after hitting the coast with 100-plus MPH winds, heavy rainfall and storm surge, it destroyed the roof of the Tampa Bay Rays' ballpark, Tropicana Field. Multiple videos surfaced on social media showing the fabric of the roof shredded from the sustained winds of the storm.
First responders were staging with cots inside the ballpark for storm recovery. There were no reported injuries as a result of the roof's destruction, according to Jason Adams of ABC Action News.
