Hurricane Milton

15-10-2024 07:00

Hurricane Milton is a big storm. It hits Florida and causes many problems. It kills 10 people and cut power for over 3 million homes and businesses.

The hurricane is strong at first. But gets weaker as it moves. Many places flood. More than 27 tornadoes hit different areas. Five people die in St. Lucie County. One woman, Crystal Coleman, is very scared when a tornado damages her house. Many people are still without power. Their homes are broken.

President Joe Biden says that the government will send help to Florida. The damage is bad, but many people think it can be worse.

Difficult words: power (electricity), weak (not strong), flood (to cover with water).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
