The formidable force of Hurricane Ian has wreaked havoc on the southwest coast of Florida, unleashing a ‘catastrophic’ storm surge and massive waves that have left Fort Myers submerged, Your Content has learned.

This Category 4 storm, with the potential to escalate to a Category 5, has already taken lives and caused widespread destruction.

As the eye of the hurricane moved onshore, Florida faced the full force of this ‘extremely dangerous’ natural disaster. With wind speeds reaching a staggering 155 mph, planes were tossed like toys and trees uprooted, leaving the state in disarray.

Despite evacuation warnings, Governor Ron DeSantis regretfully announced that it was too late for those in the affected zones to escape, urging them to stay put and brace for the worst. As the relentless rain pours down, Fort Myers battles rising waters, and the beach is now submerged, with even more severe weather predicted.

The impact of Hurricane Ian has been felt beyond Florida’s borders, as Cuba faced its first devastating encounter with the storm, leaving millions without power and claiming lives.

Stay safe, stay informed, and remember to support those in need during this challenging time, according to Daily Mail.
