A Tornado Touches Down in Fort Pierce, Florida
NOTE: These are truly spectacular shots and you can imagine the destruction. 🙏 Thank you for keeping Florida in your prayers.
A tornado touched down earlier today in the Spanish Lakes community of Fort Pierce, Florida. Multiple fatalities were reported, so stay in prayer for the affected families.
You can see a wide tornado crossing the highway, and then a couple is astonished by what they witness:
I think it looks like three tornadoes, not two ⬆️

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Saildrone Footage
NOAA’s Saildrone recorded this incredible footage showing 28 foot waves and 75.95 mph wind occur a whopping 40 nautical miles from the eye of Hurricane Milton:
A Nautical Mile
Per Wikipedia:
A nautical mile is a unit of lengthused in air, marine, and space navigation, and for the definition of territorial waters.[2][3][4] Historically, it was defined as the meridian arclength corresponding to one minute(1/60 of a degree) of latitude at the equator, so that Earth's polar circumference is very near to 21,600 nautical miles (that is 60 minutes × 360 degrees). Today the international nautical mile is defined as 1,852 metres (about 6,076 ft; 1.151 mi).[5]The derived unit of speed is the knot, one nautical mile per hour.
It looks like one nautical mile is longer than a land mile, 5,280 feet.
