Milton barreled across Florida and reached the Atlantic Ocean by Thursday. The storm left 3 million people without power and several people dead. 

Milton came two weeks after Hurricane Helene ravaged parts of the southeast United States. In addition, Milton spawned a series of tornadoes that caused major damage.
