Videos of electric vehicle fires  amid the Hurricane Milton storm surges have spread across social media. 

Tesla, a clean-energy company, sent advisories to customers urging them to move their cars to higher ground ahead of Hurricane Milton. Various insurance carriers also alerted electric vehicle owners to make storage arrangements ahead of the storm, suggesting that people park their cars in protected garages and on higher ground to ward against fires and other damage caused by flooding. 

And it’s not just cars. The Florida Fire Marshal has called the vehicles and other products  “ticking time bombs” due to their lithium-ion batteries.
