Hurricane Milton caused casualties in a home for the elderly on the east coast of Florida, despite the fact that the west coast took the brunt of the blow, Fox News reported citing the St. Lucie County Sheriff.
Earlier on Thursday, Hurricane Milton reached land on the west coast of Florida, the US National Hurricane Watch Center (NHC) reported.
There are "multiple victims," Fox News quotes the sheriff after a series of tornadoes hit the east coast.
At the same time, a representative of the local authorities said that "dozens of houses in the St. Lucie district were damaged, some with catastrophic damage." Many of them are communities for the elderly, where there are temporary buildings for living.
As a result of natural disasters, the number of households in Florida left without electricity exceeded 1 million 280 thousand, according to the data of the monitoring portal PowerOutage.us .
