Hurricane Milton could be worst to hit Florida in 100 years, Biden says
The US state of Florida is preparing for a second ferocious storm in as many weeks, as category four hurricane Milton is due to make landfall on Wednesday
Winds of up to 155mph (250km/h) have been recorded off the coast of Mexico
President Joe Biden warns the storm could be the worst to hit Florida in a century
He urged those in the storm's path to evacuate immediately, and it was a matter of "life and death"
Florida's emergencies chief warned storm surges are "not survivable" in some areas
The storm comes less than two weeks after Hurricane Helene hit the Gulf Coast as a category four storm - it killed at least 225 people across Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and North Carolina
