Tonight, Florida braces for impact from Hurricane Milton as the monster storm spawns tornado supercells.

NASWaken.

The breaking news, the storm's new track with landfall coming earlier than expected.

It's looking like the storm of the century.

Everybody's worried about the same thing, you know, do you have a home to come back to?

And hundreds of thousands are already without power, with nearly a quarter of Florida's gas

stations out of fuel.

This hurricane is going to pack a major, major punch.

Our interview with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis from inside the state's command center,

the CBS evening news starts now. The CBS evening news starts now. Good evening. I'm Norodontal in Washington,

along with Vladimir Dutier, who is leading our team of correspondence in the path of Hurricane

Milton tonight. Thank you for joining us. And as we come on the air, we're getting new information

about this monster storm, a major category three, closing in on landfall earlier than expected

along Florida's central Gulf Coast. Millions are bracing for impact. Now, the latest track

just in has the eye of the storm hitting the Sarasota area. That is just south of Tampa,

a region that hasn't had a hurricane this powerful in more than a hundred years. Milton's wind

and rain bands are humongous, stretching for about 350 miles. There are mandatory evacuation

orders in 15 out of 67 counties, but officials now say it is too late to get out.

President Biden spoke about that from the White House just a short time ago.

At this point, evacuation is probably difficult.

So I encourage people to look for safer shelter.

Sometimes moving just a few miles can mean the difference between life and death.
