Many Siesta Key residents hadn't finished cleaning up from the damage Hurricane Helene caused last month when Hurricane Milton brought more surge.

SIESTA KEY, Fla. (WFLA) — Hurricane Milton made landfall as a Category 3 hurricane near Siesta Key on Oct. 9. The eye of the storm reached land around 8:30 p.m. with maximum sustained winds of 120 mph. Aerial images show the damage in Siesta Key, and in Osprey, which is located just inland of the island.

Near the place Hurricane Milton made landfall Wednesday night, like so many of the Gulf Coast barrier islands from Sarasota to Clearwater, it was hard to tell where the damage from one storm ended and the ruin of another began.
