RAINFALL: Additional rainfall amounts up to an inch are possible
along the northeastern coast of Florida through this evening. In the
wake of heavy rainfall from Milton, the risk of considerable urban
flooding will linger through this evening across east central
Florida. Moderate to major river flooding is ongoing and forecast
throughout central Florida.

affect portions of the southeast U.S. and the Bahamas during the
next couple of days. These swells could cause life-threatening
surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your
local weather office.

Post-Tropical Cyclone Milton Discussion Number 23
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL142024
500 PM EDT Thu Oct 10 2024
Milton's satellite appearance has continued to take on an
extratropical appearance, and ASCAT data from a few hours ago
confirmed that the cyclone has become frontal. Based on that
information, Milton was declared post tropical in the 2 pm
intermediate advisory. The ASCAT passes showed maximum winds of
55-60 kt to the northwest of the center, so the initial intensity
is set to 60 kt.
Milton has turned eastward and sped up a bit (080/18 kt). A
general eastward motion with an increase in forward speed is
expected during the next several days, with the extratropical low
forecast to pass south of Bermuda in 24-36 hours. Global model
fields and intensity models indicate that the intensity should
gradually decrease during the next several days, and this is
reflected in the official forecast. Dissipation is shown by day 4,
although there is still some uncertainty if Milton will become
absorbed by the frontal zone before that time, or retain its
identity beyond 4 days.
Since all storm surge and tropical storm warnings have been
discontinued, this will be the last advisory on Milton. Additional
information on this system can be found in High Seas Forecasts
issued by the National Weather Service, under AWIPS header
NFDHSFAT1, WMO header FZNT01 KWBC, and online at
ocean.weather.gov/shtml/NFDHSFAT1.php
Key Messages:
1. Gusty winds and coastal flooding will gradually diminish along
portions of the southeastern U.S. coast through tonight.
2. In the wake of heavy rainfall from Milton, the risk of
considerable urban flooding will linger through this evening across
east central Florida. Moderate to major river flooding is ongoing
and forecast throughout central Florida.
3. In Florida, continue to use caution since deadly hazards remain,
including downed power lines and flooded areas. Ensure generators
are properly ventilated and placed outside at least 20 feet away
from doors, windows, and garages to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
If you are cleaning up storm damage, be careful when using
chainsaws and power tools, and drink plenty of water to avoid heat
exhaustion.
