At 5 a.m., all hurricane and tropical storm warnings were discontinued for Florida's west coast, but flood watches remained in effect.

Hurricane Milton slammed into Florida, bringing widespread damage not just to the west coast where it made landfall, but throughout the state.

Four people were killed by tornadoes in St. Lucie County on Florida’s east coast, county officials said. "Numerous homes" have "suffered significant damage," officials added. Wind gusts climbed to 97 mph in Tampa and 102 mph at the Sarasota Bradenton International Airport as Milton slammed the coast.
