ORLANDO, Fla. — As Hurricane Milton moves across Central Florida into the Atlantic, Channel 9 reporter Geovany Dias shares damage in Cocoa Beach.

Milton has maximum sustained winds of around 90 mph and is moving east-northeast at 16 mph.

Dias said the building roofs are peeling off as the wind gets stronger.

“The wind feels like it is coming from every direction,” Dias said.

A tow truck driver said they were on the streets to help a driver stuck in water. “I am making sure people don’t get stuck out here.”

The driver said he had already recused three people.
