Washington. A fox news alert. A massive hurricane that could be the most destructive in the history of the country is about to slam into florida. Hurricane milton could make landfall as early as 8 00 p. M. Eastern, exactly one hour from now. Now, the national Weather Service says the window to evacuate has closed. Shelter in place now. Tampa, Fort Myers and orlando are all expected to face lifethreatening impacts. Tornadoes have already been seen and many of floridas West Coast beaches are at risk as well of being wiped out. Now, first responders in st. Petersburg have paused all operations. Not responding to any emergencies until it is safe to do so. We will bring you conch from across the state but, first, we start in Brayden Ton Florida where Fox Weather Robert ray is standing by, robert . Yeah. Laura, good evening to you. And you see the Manatee River behind me that is raging with up to 80 mileperhour winds that have occurred here in this part of the Gulf Coast. We are not too far
Theyre saying it could Go To 9 . That would be worse than two years ago, except it would be selfinflicted, really key line from the authors here. They say that we find ironically that the spot fight his make the foreigners pay rhetoric. This package of policies does more damage to the u. S. Economy than to any other in the world which kate, i just think brings us to one of the ironies here, right . The economy is the number one issue. Voters say they trust trump over harris on the economy. And yet these experts, when they dig into the policies, they he say that he wouldnt just fail to fix inflation. He would actually make things worse brutal, brutal analysis for sure. Thank you so much. Matt were going to head over to florida right now where the governor of florida is holding an update on Hurricane Helene as its making its way to the Gulf Coast and major general John Haas from the Florida National Guard as you know, as of 8 00 a. M. Hurricane helene is now a category two hurricane. It
Saying yeah, we have a category three hurricane on our hands right now, what 125 mile per hour winds my point that out because it category four hurricane starts at 130 mile per hour winds, so were really talking about a difference of five to ten miles per hour here, right . So right now, its a very Highend Category three teetering on that category four, which is why the national Hurricane Center is saying, hey, look, its still sitting over very warm from Ocean Waters right now. It has all the ingredients it needs to strengthen. So theres really not much to stop it from gaming that five miles per hour that it needs to just get to that category and become a category four either way, whether its this Highend Category three, or it makes that fivemile per Hour Difference to a category four. We are still talking about the Sam Catastrophic on survivable impacts when it comes to the Storm Surge and heavy Rain And Everything else. Weve been talking about, the radar. You can see again still with

Final hour of Fox An
And in the other corner are republicans too cowardly to admit it. Let s start with dick cheney who made shock waves when he said he would vote for kamala harris over donald trump. He justified his support saying in our nation s 248 year history there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than donald trump. He can never be trusted with power again. Cheney of course joined the ranks of notable republicans who have vowed to support harris just like his daughter liz cheney and adam kinsingger.
