Early on Thursday, the US National Hurricane Center (NHC) said Milton had become a Category 1 hurricane. The downgrade came several hours after the storm made landfall as a Category 3. Hurricanes typically lose steam after hitting land. On Sunday and Monday, scientists were left stunned when the storm rapidly developed from a Category 1 to 5 within a matter of hours. Despite the downgrade, winds were still extremely strong at 90 mph (150 kph) as the storm made its way towards Cape Canaveral on Florida’s east coast.
