On Episode 768 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking about Hurricane Milton’s devastating path toward Florida. With the Southeast still recovering from Helene, Milton heads for Florida as a Category 4 hurricane.
We’ll look at the impacts the storms are having on the freight market, the roads, the people and the places they’ve put underwater in October. We’ll also find how the Florida government works with the Waffle House storm center, and we’ll see what that Waffle House Index is saying.
The port strike may be over for now, but Jan. 15 is just three months away. Will the ILA head right back to the picket line when its extension expires, and what impacts are shippers facing now? CNBC’s Lori Ann LaRocco shares the latest news.
Brokers and carriers getting along? They said it would never happen but that was before the Broker Carrier Summit came along. Robert Bain and Rob McCutcheon tell us what to expect at this upcoming event.
TIE’s Tyler Christensen and Sandy Scardina talk about a new insurance program and talk about hurricane damage to semitrucks.
Plus, riding out Milton in a boat; a jumbotron for your kitchen; and more.
