With winds of 180 mph, Milton is now a Category 5 storm. It’s headed for Florida’s Gulf Coast, which is struggling to recover from Hurricane Helene. Several counties have issued mandatory evacuation orders and crews are working intensely to clear debris before Milton hits. NBC News’ Tom Llamas reports.
Thousands remained without running water in western North Carolina, 11 days after Hurricane Helene caused devastating flooding in the region. NBC News’ Antonia Hylton reports on the recovery effort in one rural town.

#Hurricane #HurricaneMilton #Florida
This is going to be horrible. Take care and be safe and God bless
Al is getting thick again, little fatty!
I know it’s hitting Orlando and Tampa.
they gave all the money for FEMA to the Illegals invading our country
At this point it feels like if you can’t afford to evacuate Florida… You can’t afford to live in Florida.
Don’t forget Messi
I am praying for Everyone
Hurricanes are the reason I would never live in Florida. That piled up debris is going to be ugly when the wind hits. My God.
Hike your pants an prepare to save yourselves. Biden Harris gave most of all disaster funds from FEMA to illegals instead of keeping it as a protection.
Trump needs to stay away. He brings nothing to the table. The focus is on protecting, aiding, and Recovery.
⛔ what did the south do to get so much punishment from GOD! HMMMM…. But, Lindsey GRAHAM, TRUMP, KAMALA and CONGRESS cares more about IISRAEL, UKRAINE, AND TAIWAN!
Maybe these ppl should LEARN TOSPEAK ENGLISG
Maybe you should learn how to spell.
Oh my goodness man, as if Helene was not crappy or dangerous God bless everyone! this is so crazy Milton is a cat-5 hurricane so 180 MPH + winds I mean that is not even safe to be nearby at all. Everyone be safe, if you can evacuate temporarily then do so man! or shelter in place! Godspeed.
The people paying for the misdeeds of its evil government. The Universe sees all.
Republicans: Leave me alone, cut our taxes and CUT Government, climate change is a hoax.
“A few moments later”
Republicans: Save us, spare no expense, where is FEMA, listen to my latest conspiracy theory !
Dunce
@@Melissa-gc1hz Yet I’m spot on, are you in that CULT ?
You’ve had 2 weeks……
All the people demanding FEMA writes them checks as handouts … aren’t these the same who tell others to pull themselves to by their bootstraps.
I’m in upstate South Carolina, about 45 minutes southeast of Asheville. We just got power back, 9 days after the storm. We are grateful to have escaped the kind of destruction that our neighboring communities are still struggling with. The geography of this area -with our enormous trees, steep, winding mountain roads, deep valleys and many rapid rivers, created a uniquely challenging environment for this kind of weather event. I hope we never see anything like this again.
I’m in Upstate SC, too. Knew we’d get some ugly weather. But I’d never have imagined it would be as bad as it was. Hoping the best for those in Milton’s path.
Get out of there!!
Fueled by climate change? 🤣🤦🏻♂️ hurricanes happen. We happen to live in one of the most peaceful times the earth has ever seen. 🤦🏻♂️
its cloud seeding
What’s going on?
Climate change? That’s what climate has been doing for millions of years
climate control
My mom live there
Wheather control. Just like hurricane Harvey. No other way to explain it
cloud seeding at its finest, theres no way that you can have one hurricane after another
GOP Speaker Mike Johnson: There’s No Rush For Congress To Approve Hurricane Relief. “We’ll be back in session immediately after the election,” the House speaker said of waiting until November for Congress to vote on emergency funding.🤔
A PLUG 🔌 for the climate change scam 🤣 the Bible tells us this would happen before Jesus return in the last days.
Godbless everyone helping.
@ 6:55 $31 million divided by 104,000 people is about $300, Governor Cooper.
Keep up the good work from your friend John
Hurricane season just gets longer and longer with more intense storms
No it doesn’t.
Florida Ko Tun Aye T +Ma Phyu Pyhu Min တို့ ဘေးကင်းပါစေ….
😢😭😭😭 i and freeckt wat
Happy October 🎃
🙏🏻♥️Find Safety ♥️
Why ya still wanna live in Florida?
And yet Elon musk and others wasting trillions on space technology instead of making the real fight against nature.
If I lived in Florida, after the first hurricane, knowing the second one, I would just pack what I would of had left & I would just move out the state, I would never want to go through anything like this, I pray 🙏🏼 that everyone will be okay & stay safe please Amen!
WE ARE ALL PRAYING FOR THE STATE OF FLORIDA!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💖
Biden sent this one.
Rhe curse of Ron desantis
He may need to repent.
Yes, the winds are intense.. however the most damage will come from the surge… any place within a couple miles from the coast will be flooded.
Seems like a lot of people trying to make it political. Anybody can say they haven’t received help. Anybody can say anything.
This entire country is bracing itself for what’s about to happen. Hang in there everybody, do what you gotta do. We are all thinking about this
Remind me of hurricane Michael here’s the three differences this what is a 1 and 100 Year event the last time this happened was back in 1921 in that area and to think about hurricane Michael was the strongest winds were 24 miles in diameter and there was a peak wind gust of 218 miles per hour October 10th will Mark 6 years since hurricane Michael
Tomorrow night I thought it was supposed to be Wednesday not Tuesday
God is trying to wipe out Trump at Mara Lago.
What about Mexico?
Fema is a joke. It’s we the people. Stop giving access to politicians to the American peoples money
There were gusts as high as 225 mph. That’s insane.
FEMA can’t afford this. 😊
So have you called the VP back yet Ron?
I am curious. Where are people evacuating to? Do they just drive northwards and stay in their cars? It sounds terrifying
As a Native American, AFRICAN American, SCottish AMerican, and MIlitary Historian and Geneologist thank you NbC For doing the AMerasian without Borders story. There are sooooo many WAR BABIES IN THE PACICFIC FRONT Malaysia, Vietnam, KOREA AND EVEN jAPAN WHOM Never find their Military Fathers….this was such a GOOOOooood story. thank you You made my Morning with this DNA Success story. We found my Older Half UNcle from Mississippi too in 2018.
The truth is slowly coming out: These hurricanes are NOT fueled by climate change but by geo-engineering. Weather manipulation has been proven and has become a weaponized means of clearing areas from Paradise, CA, to Lahaina, Hawaii, to the entire southeast where lithium is mined in North Carolina. Now all confiscated by the US gov’t by way of FEMA stormtroopers. What has happened to our country?
These storms that keep on coming to america are man made storms, China made them! US govt better do something asap
Praying everyone safety .
Unless you have actually been through this you have no idea. Over 7 million people are trying to evacuate.
I predict that many people that are on the highways are not gonna make it.
This is gonna be katrina X a 1000.
You know there’s a problem when the weather man starts breaking it down like a cheap suitcase… When the weatherman starts to cry and get choked up you know something’s wrong!!!
40 days,and 40 nights with the heavens and earth open up with water shows it can cover the entire earth. Lord help us. We are not obefient as we should. In God we trust have become a fascade because you have bless this nation, and we think we are invincible
Have mercy dear Lord, take away our Titanic belief
Yall can thank Kamala and the immigrants for using up ALL the FEMA emergency funds
More funding would help then. Too bad republicans vote against it
@@branch737 they’re leaving that hot potato in her hands to be voted in Nov
All the money was sent to Ukraine and Israel that’s why NC gets nothing. Dont forget the illegals
😢Prepare for climate changes. Preparada, Di amigos amigas.
Lester started off the segment perfectly! Wow, great newscaster!
The Milton storm is truly terrifying and horrific.
Oh my God, I hope that the “People’s Liberation Army of United States” can help them rebuild their homes after the disaster
You won’t get any help because illegal immigrants need housing and FEMA funds paided for it. They dont have the funds to mobilize and rescue you, your, family and property. Thank your boarder czar 😢
Now they clean this suppose to do before
they giving the Americans $50 dollars, and the 12 million Illegals that are here thanks to kamala they got thousands. Something is not right.
All in the world are devastated of deadly storms and storms inside our heads. Prayers to all trying to stay strong. God is with Us through it all.
Gods warning on global warming ❤
more like cloud seeding
REPUBLICANS weaponizing this saying it’s not climate change….mmmmmkay
ever heard cloud seeding?
@@retrobluemusic oh here comes planet maga conspiracy theorists. We know it’s way safer to call it this…clowns
À@№
🤌🏼THESE STORMS ARE HORRIFIC, & AS A KATRINA SURVIVOR, IM BEGGING EVERYONE IN THE PATH OF MILTON TO GO, PLEASE JUST GET OUT NOW 💫🙏🏼✨
I changed my political affiliation months ago, but had I not already, the way this administration has ABANDONED and DISRESPECTED these traumatized American is the icing on the cake. They refuse to supply the thousands of body bags for the unidentified loved ones that littler our streets, but standby their $750.00 “Aid” as proof they’re helping. Of course we have no electricity, computers, or even homes since Helene, but…
This is nothing to the punishment coming.
Punishment from God.. But followers of Lucifer didn’t acknowledge it as a punishment.. Stop supporting and funding Israel against Innocent people of Palestine
how about stop cloud seeding. huh?
So now england soccer team Milton Keynes Dons (MK Dons) will be more popular because of this name of tornado😂
HAARP…. OPERATION POPEYE
You are intentionly being flooded
Wakey wakey people
HAARP … OPERATION POPEYE CLOUD SEEDING
WAKE UP PEOPLE
This is insane😞 so sorry people.. hope you all stay alive 🙏❤️
Some people do not have the funds to leave , so what do you do ??
ChemTrails!!! Causing climate change!! Thanks alot Globalsit
klimatechange…HARP?
Rebuilding after a hurricane and making buildings hurricane-resistant are crucial .
Methods for Rebuilding Faster After a Hurricane
1. **Pre-Disaster Planning**: Having a recovery plan in place before a disaster strikes can significantly speed up the rebuilding process. This includes pre-arranged contracts with construction companies and suppliers¹.
2. **Efficient Resource Allocation**: Prioritize critical infrastructure like power, water, and transportation to enable other rebuilding activities¹.
3. **Government Assistance**: Utilize federal and local government programs for financial aid and resources. FEMA, for example, provides grants and loans for rebuilding³.
4. **Community Involvement**: Engage local communities in the rebuilding process to ensure that efforts are well-coordinated and meet the needs of residents².
5. **Use of Technology**: Implement modern construction technologies and materials that allow for quicker and more efficient building processes¹.
Making Hurricane-Resistant Buildings
1. **Reinforced Concrete and Steel**: Use materials like reinforced concrete and steel, which are highly resistant to wind and water damage⁹.
2. **Impact-Resistant Windows and Doors**: Install windows and doors that can withstand high winds and flying debris.
3. **Elevated Structures**: Build homes on stilts or elevated foundations to prevent flood damage.
4. **Aerodynamic Design**: Opt for round or multi-sloped roof designs that can better withstand high winds¹¹.
5. **Hurricane Straps and Clips**: Use metal straps and clips to secure the roof to the walls and the walls to the foundation, reducing the risk of structural failure.
6. **Storm Shutters**: Install storm shutters to protect windows and doors from wind and debris.
7. **Waterproofing**: Ensure that buildings are well-sealed to prevent water intrusion, which can cause significant damage.
By combining these rebuilding methods and construction techniques, communities can recover more quickly from hurricanes and build structures that are better equipped to withstand future storms.

Look likes gaza 😂😂
Help me I live in Florida
Is NBC still backing Biden/Harris after their disgusting response to our current hurricane outbreak ? 😝🇺🇸
I’m sure FEMA will be right there helping out the whole way. Oh, wait… I forgot they spent all their money on illegal immigrants and are broke now. Oh well…
In the USA, individuals living in cars due to partial homelessness result from a complex interplay of factors. High housing costs relative to income, stagnant wages, and income inequality drive this issue. Job loss, weak social support, medical expenses, evictions, and lack of affordable housing also contribute, while systemic problems and inadequate policies further perpetuate the phenomenon.
Considering the present situation, diversifying by shifting investments from real estate to financial markets or gold is recommended, despite potential future home price drops. Given prevailing mortgage rates and economic uncertainty, this move is prudent, particularly due to stricter mortgage regulations. Seeking advice from a knowledgeable independent financial advisor is advisable for those seeking guidance.
I’ve remained in touch with a financial analyst since the start of my business. Amid today’s dynamic market, the key difficulty is pinpointing the right time to buy or sell when dealing with trending stocks – a seemingly simple task but challenging in reality. My portfolio has grown by more than $600k within just a year, and I’ve entrusted my advisor with the task of determining entry and exit points.
@@hunter-bourke21Impressive can you share more info?
The decision on when to pick an Adviser is a very personal one. I take guidance from *Izella Annette Anderson* to meet my growth goals and avoid mistakes, she’s well-qualified and her page can be easily found on the net.
Definitely! All of this happened in less than a year after *Izella Annette Anderson* told me what to do. I started with less than $100,000, and now I’m about 17,000 short of having a quarter million dollars.
Anything to have mail in votes I guess
if it crosses florida it could go back to sea and reform which could put sth and nth carolina at risk again if only as a rain event , with the ground so saturated it could cause major flooding … we have had cyclones in the gulf of carpentaria australia cross the cape reform then swing back and hit the cape again .. not trying to be a alarmist but might be worth being ready just in case
This is from Allah the return the cursed of palastenian.Allhu akbar
Feel the Palestinians
Great 👍 Allah is super power and best reprisal 💪💪
Milton the Monster!
