The roof at Tropicana Field was quickly destroyed as Hurricane Milton made landfall in the Tampa Bay area on Wednesday.

The storm, which reached Category 5 status earlier this week over the Gulf of Mexico, slammed into Florida’s west coast on Wednesday. Within a few hours, big chunks of the roof at the home of the Tampa Bay Rays started coming off.

The Rays said before the storm hit that the stadium was not being used as a shelter for residents, but it was set up as a staging area for first responders. As of Wednesday night, according to the Tampa Bay Times’ Marc Topkin, no injuries were reported.

The roof, according to the team's media guide, is made of "six acres of translucent, Tefloncoated fiberglass and supports itself with 180 miles of cables connected by struts." It was designed to withstand winds of up to 115 mph.

Raymond James Stadium, the home of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, was quickly overcome with water, too. Unlike Tropicana Field, the stadium does not have a roof. The Buccaneers are on the road this week, and they left town early to avoid the hurricane.
