As Hurricane Milton approached landfall, its outer bands unleashed powerful waves that drenched tourists at the iconic Southernmost Point Buoy in Key West, Florida. The buoy, known for marking the southernmost spot in the continental US, became a spectacle as visitors posed for photos only to be surprised by the crashing waves.
Webcam footage captured by Two Oceans Digital showcased the dramatic scene as tourists stood next to the colorful buoy, unaware of the impending deluge. Strong waves surged over the land, engulfing the area and soaking visitors from behind, leaving them stunned and wet.
The incident serves as a stark reminder of the unpredictable and dangerous nature of hurricanes, even before their full impact is felt. Despite warnings and preparations, the sheer force of nature's fury can catch even the most vigilant individuals off guard.
Authorities continue to monitor Hurricane Milton's path closely, urging residents and tourists alike to stay informed and take necessary precautions. As the storm approaches, it is crucial to prioritize safety and heed evacuation orders to minimize risks and ensure the well-being of all those in its path.
