Hurricane Milton: The Wrath of Nature




A Personal Account of a Terrifying Storm
This past week, our small coastal town was hit by the wrath of

Hurricane Milton. I have lived here for over 50 years, and I have never experienced anything like it before.
The day before the storm, the sky turned a strange shade of green, and the wind began to howl. We boarded up our windows, filled our bathtubs with water, and waited for the worst.
At around midnight, the storm hit with full force. The wind screamed like a banshee, and the rain came down in sheets. The ocean surged inland, flooding our streets and homes.
We huddled together in our living room, listening to the deafening noise. The power went out, and we were plunged into darkness. We could feel the house shaking, and we feared that it would collapse.
Thankfully, our house held strong. But many of our neighbors were not so lucky. Their homes were destroyed, and they lost everything.
The next morning, we surveyed the damage. The town was in ruins. Trees were uprooted, buildings were leveled, and cars were flipped over. It was a scene of complete devastation.
We spent the next few days cleaning up and helping our neighbors. It was a long and difficult process, but we eventually got through it.
We are now rebuilding our lives, and our community is stronger than ever. But we will never forget the terror of Hurricane Milton.
I urge everyone to be prepared for hurricanes and other natural disasters. Have a plan in place, and make sure you have supplies on hand. You never know when disaster will strike.
