Tropical Storm Milton is forecast to strengthen into a hurricane headed toward Florida with possible impacts to the state's western coast.

Hurricane Milton, which forecasters say poses an "extremely serious threat," is expected to roar into Florida tomorrow.

Tropical Storm Milton formed in the Gulf of Mexico on Saturday as forecasters expect the storm to quickly strengthen into a major hurricane over the next few days. Milton is expected to rapidly intensify over the next 36 hours and could be a major Category 3 hurricane when it reaches the west coast of the Florida peninsula mid-week,
