This has turned out to be nothing like what I’ve got this morning apparently…

Will Hurricane Milton affect the UK?
Milton is expected to weaken to a tropical storm once over the open waters of the Atlantic and transition into an extratropical storm after it passes to the south of Bermuda. Beyond this, the remnant is likely to either be absorbed into a frontal zone or dissipate in situ in the subtropical Atlantic.

If the remnants of Milton end up in the Atlantic as a weakening feature, it could cause some forecast uncertainty next week.

Even though it broke up over Florida, it regains its shape once back on water. It still moves along but at a reduced category. As is travels it grabs other weather along its path as its gets closer to europe, it just becomes a big storm, sometimes a hurricane. This is my understanding from what I have learnt and read about, in its simplest terms anyway.

Remember speed of sound is only 760mph. Somehow the hurricane has speeded up before the winds hit us.

and they say its not been engineered ? :)

False claims about Hurricane Milton's origins spread online

Social media is awash with bogus claims that Hurricane Milton has been “engineered”. What are the facts?
www.bbc.co.uk

Sad world we live in when people post such BS on social media. "Faces being seen in the hurricane from space are proof microwaves are being used to create the hurricane"
