00:08A strong rain and wind is now being felt in Florida, in America.
00:13Some trees on the road have already fallen.
00:16The collision happened even before the landfall of Hurricane Milton.
00:23The storm hit as a category 3 with strong winds
00:27of 205 kilometers per hour according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center.
00:33According to one of our countrymen there,
00:36the strong winds and rain can be seen in their area.
00:39At the moment, the storm is being considered as a category 2 storm.
00:44According to the National Weather Service,
00:46it is possible that the storm was caused by heavy rains.
00:49Yesterday, the storm hit less than 10 inches of rain in Florida.
00:54More than 120 houses were damaged.
00:58It is expected to move east-northeast
01:01and become an extra-tropical cyclone tomorrow night in the U.S.
01:10And now, in the situation of some Filipinos in Florida, in the U.S.,
01:13still in the middle of Hurricane Milton,
01:17we will be joined by Ms. Judith Batak-Bibelya.
01:20She lives in the south of Tampa Bay.
01:23Welcome to Balitang Halim, Ms. Judith. This is Connie Season.
01:29Hi!
01:30I can't say that it's a good day
01:33because we can see Hurricane Milton moving east-northeast.
01:37Can you tell us about the situation in South Tampa Bay?
01:43Where are you now?
01:47The strong winds and rain are very strong here.
01:51The other areas, especially the coastline near the sea,
01:57it's really flooding.
01:59But in your area, aside from the strong winds and rain,
02:05what did you do to prevent yourself from being affected by this?
02:12We put shutters on the windows of the houses
02:18so that the windows won't break.
02:22Yes, I saw in the video you sent,
02:26that you already have shutters.
02:28But is it really like that?
02:30And they say that the floods in Florida are really frequent.
02:34Is this the strongest you've experienced so far?
02:38Yes, this is the strongest.
02:41I don't expect it to be this strong.
02:43How long have you been living in Florida, ma'am?
02:47We've been here for four years.
02:49We just moved from Maryland.
02:52This is the strongest flood I've experienced.
02:56Ma'am Judith, we'll just go with the flow.
02:58If you can't get out and you won't be affected by the floods,
03:01maybe you can show us your cell phone video
03:05so that we can see what the situation is like outside.
03:10Okay.
03:11We saw earlier that the winds were really strong.
03:16Okay, I'll be here in a moment.
03:18Go ahead, ma'am.
03:20First, let's pull this.
03:24There.
03:26Okay.
03:27That's what's happening right now on your street, right?
03:32Yes, this is on the street outside our house.
03:34Yes, and let's not go out too much, ma'am.
03:37You might get in trouble.
03:40This is Ms. Judith from Tampa Bay in Florida, America.
