The Weather Channel's Paul Goodloe was in Sarasota, Florida, covering the hurricane's landfall. He then explained that the full effects of the storm are not over yet, citing the Falcons' collapse at the hands of the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LI.

“We definitely enjoyed the little halftime show that Mother Nature gave us inside Milton,” Goodrow said. “But it's already the second half, and I want to remind everyone that even though we may have your attention right now, there's still a lot of work to do.

“I remember the Atlanta Falcons winning the first half of the Super Bowl. We all know what happened in the second half when the Patriots came back. So don't sleep on Milton's second half.”

The Falcons led 28-3 at halftime of the Super Bowl, but lost that lead in a dramatic comeback by Tom Brady. This shows that even in the most dangerous situations, the game is still in the minds of fans.
