Hurricane Milton: Biden provides update on preparations as storm barrels towards Florida | LIVE

On Tuesday, U.S. President Joe Biden will provide an update on the federal government's response to Hurricane Helene and the preparations for hurricane Milton, which is set to slam into the already-battered Florida on Wednesday. Hurricane Milton strengthened to a Category 5 storm on Monday and has since been downgraded to a 4. Florida is ramping up efforts for potentially its biggest evacuation in seven years – just days after the significant impact of hurricane Helene. Hurricane watches are in place for a large portion of Florida, and the storm is heading towards major population centres including Tampa and Orlando before making its way to the Atlantic Ocean.
