Storms and anchors
It is a stormy world out there, literally and figuratively. As Hurricane Milton smashed into the Florida coast, it was a reminder of the awesome power of nature. Sustained windspeeds of around 160km/h tore the roofs off buildings, a storm surge pushed coastal sea levels up more than two meters, and an unimaginable amount of rain bucketed down. The storm also spawned more than a hundred tornados. Moreover, it is the second hurricane to hit the region in quick succession, following Hurricane Helene in late September.
