Tampa Mayor Jane Castor issued a dire warning to residents considering ignoring evacuation orders as Hurricane Milton approaches Florida."I can say without any dramatization whatsoever: If you choose to stay in one of those evacuation areas, you're going to die," Castor told CNN on Monday evening.The big picture: Hurricane Milton explosively intensified to become a Category 5 storm on Monday.Coming fast on the heels of the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene, Milton threatens to impact highly populated areas of the Florida coast.The National Hurricane Center warned Tuesday that Hurricane Milton "has the potential to be one of the most destructive hurricanes on record for west-central Florida."While Hurricane Helene brought a 4-to-8 foot storm surge in the Tampa Bay area — and was extremely damaging — Milton is projected to bring an unprecedented 10-to 15-foot storm surge to a wide swath of the area.

Former President Trump attacked former first lady Michelle Obama during his rally in Atlanta on Monday, calling her “nasty” after Obama lobbed attacks at the former president while stumping for Vice President Harris.“You know who’s nasty to me?

Oh, she was nasty. Shouldn’t be that way. That was a big mistake that she made,” he added.His remarks come after Obama criticized Trump during a Michigan rally on Saturday, at one point mentioning “Donald Trump’s gross incompetence.”“I hope that you’ll forgive me if I’m a little angry that we are indifferent to his erratic behavior, his obvious mental decline, his history as a convicted felon, a known slum lord, a predator found liable for sexual abuse, all of this while we pick apart Kamala’s answers from interviews that he doesn’t even have the courage to do, y’all,” she said in Kalamazoo, Mich.The heated rhetoric underscores the increasingly personal tone the presidential election has taken between the two campaigns roughly one week out from the election.An aggregate of national surveys compiled by The Hill/Decision Desk HQ shows Harris slightly ahead at close to 49 percent support while Trump is at 48 percent.
