Live updates: At least 10 dead, millions without power in aftermath of Hurricane Milton
Hurricane Milton made landfall as a Category 3 storm late Wednesday along Florida's Gulf Coast, bringing powerful winds, a deadly storm surge and flooding to much of the state.
Officials said Thursday morning that the danger had yet to pass.
Power outages were widespread early Thursday and deaths have been reported. Nearly 3.5 million Floridians are without power, according to PowerOutage.us, which tracks outages nationwide.
While Tampa was spared a direct hit, Milton compounded the misery wrought by Helene.
President Biden also spoke to Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis earlier Thursday regarding the impacts of Hurricane Milton.
The governor said officials were still assessing the damage across the state and thanked Biden for federal support, according to the White House.
