Cuban meteorologist José Rubiera has warned about the imminent arrival of Hurricane Milton in Florida, scheduled for next Wednesday.
Focusing on the safety of residents, Rubiera highlighted on his channel YouTube the need to be alert and prepared for the dangers posed by this natural phenomenon.
The specialist explained that “if the center of the hurricane passed through Tampa, the effects would extend far beyond that point.” He indicated that the hurricane should not be seen as a simple point on the map, but as an extensive area of impact that can cause significant damage in its path. If Milton passes through Naples, he warned that “from the Florida Keys to the Tampa area could be affected.”
With the help of simulated satellite images, the meteorologist showed the magnitude of the hurricane, noting: “look at the area it covers when it passes through Florida.” Rubiera stressed that “practically the entire peninsula, from the north to the south, will be affected.” Therefore, he urged the population not only to focus on the center of the hurricane, but to take into account the broad reach of the storm.
“Milton is a big hurricane,” warned Doctor Rubiera
The meteorologist emphasized the importance of preparation, noting that there is still time to take the necessary precautions. “It is a big hurricane, which will even affect areas that were already hit by the previous one,” he warned, emphasizing that there is already an “important precedent.” Rubiera recommended residents prepare adequately to avoid loss of life and property damage.
Among the expected consequences of Hurricane Milton in Floridamentioned the possibility of “gigantic storm surges, 5 to 6 meters high.” Intense storm surges and torrential rains could cause severe flooding. «If you are in a flood area, you should evacuate. “It can’t be there,” he warned.
In addition, Rubiera highlighted the dangers posed by strong winds. “It should not be outside, because pieces of boards and trees can become projectiles,” he emphasized. He urged the population to pay attention to the information and follow the guidelines of the authorities to minimize the risk of human loss and material damage. “The material damages, over time, are recovered, but life is priceless,” concluded Rubiera.
