Reporter Almost Blown, Shark Lands In A Fort. Watch Terrifying Videos of Hurricane Ian’s Encounter in Florida

Hurricane Ian: “Extremely violent” Hurricane Ian made landfall in southwest Florida on Thursday, west of densely populated Fort Myers, destroying homes, uprooting trees, and flipping cars along the coast at Cayo Costa. Ian quickly reached category 5 storm status and became “very dangerous” with gusts of wind up to 155 mph. As Hurricane Ian battered Florida with torrential rains and an unprecedented surge of up to 18 feet, it flooded the state’s roadways and coastal communities. A Floridian who remained in his home in Venice to observe the catastrophe described the pounding hurricane as “terrifying” as he walked outside.

“A awful, nasty day,” declared Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.

Air Force hurricane hunters revealed that after tearing apart the island of Cuba and destroying the nation’s energy grid, which rendered the entire island completely black, Hurricane Ian grew to horrific strength over warm Gulf of Mexico water. Ron DeSantis, the governor of Florida, issued a warning that it would be “a horrible nasty day, two days” as Ian was centred approximately 60 miles to the west-southwest of Naples. He emphasised that individuals who are in the hurricane’s path should go as quickly as they can to the safest possible refuge because the storm is predicted to bring unprecedented havoc.

Hurricane Ian made landfall north of Fort Myers, Florida, around 125 miles south of Tampa. Unbelievably high waves of 12 to 18 feet blanketed a 100-mile stretch of the shoreline, and images seemed to imply that sharks and other rarely seen aquatic life had washed up with the storm. From Bonita Beach up north via Fort Myers and Charlotte Harbor to Englewood, the centre of the hurricane was visible. Florida’s entire state was placed under emergency declaration by Governor Ron DeSantis, who was followed by the governors of North Carolina and South Carolina. According to information provided by PowerOutage.us, there were an estimated 330,000 power outages in Florida that may have affected 70% of utility customers, leaving more than 1 million without electricity.
