On the night of October 10, Hurricane Milton reached the Florida coast. Its epicenter was on land near the town of Siesta Key in Sarasota County on the west coast of the state. According to media reports, at least 16 people died from the hurricane.
More than 5 million residents left the state during the evacuation. The hurricane left more than 3 million people in Florida without power.
The international rating agency Fitch Ratings has estimated that losses from Milton will range from $30 to $50 billion. This will be the largest amount since Hurricane Ian two years ago, when losses were at the level of $60 billion.
