Hurricane Ian's destructive Category 4 elements struck Florida's west coast near Fort Myers on September 28, unleashing its fury with 150 mph winds, a 12-foot storm surge and relentless rainfall. The aftermath included widespread power outages, damaged and destroyed infrastructure, overturned cars and boats and catastrophic flooding. Ian's impact equaled that of the fifth strongest hurricane to land in the United States.
