Lost power about 520pm when an estimated EF 2/3 long track tornado missed my house by about 3/4 mile! Heard it, felt it, spent 20 minutes in my laundry room with my wife and dog! First for me as a 54 y/o Florida native! Power just came back about 20 minutes ago! Crazy outbreak of over 50 tornadoes, many on the east coast, and most were EF2 or 3s which is unheard of in Florida!!!!

Welcome back! Glad you're alright! I saw at least two that may even be higher than EF3 (4+) Crazy

There are some incredible rainfall rates and amounts happening from roughly I4 north and the Turnpike west! I hope Milton doesn't slow too much!

0z Rapid Refresh has the center of Milton just exiting the state about 5am EDT, still producing quite a lot of strong and damaging winds well inland and likely a lot of surge on the east coast of Florida as it does. This model also shows a for the area between 8pm Wednesday and 8pm Thursday that if anything is probably underdone. It looks like a lot of these numbers have already been realized on the west central Florida coast.
