Note the bolded bit at the end. 

Milton is moving northeastward at 12 kt in the flow between a mid-to upper-level trough over the northern Gulf and a ridge located over the Greater Antilles.  This motion should generally continue
until Milton makes landfall in Florida, which is likely to occur late tonight or early Thursday morning.  After the hurricane reaches the coast, a turn to the east-northeast is expected as another
trough approaches the system from the west.  Milton should exit Florida and move over the Atlantic waters Thursday afternoon and
accelerate eastward after that.  The NHC track forecast is nudged a little to the north of the previous one to be in better agreement with the latest models.  It should be noted that this forecast is based on the model fields, not the interpolated models which appear to be too far south.  Users are urged not to focus on the
exact landfall point as the average error at 24 hours is about 40
miles.
