BREAKING: HurricaneIan makes landfall on Florida's southwestern coast as a Cat 4 storm with 150 mph winds.
The hurricane center warned that devastating storm surges could push as much as 12 to 18 feet of water over a nearly 100-mile stretch of coastline, from Bonita Beach north through Fort Myers to Englewood. Rainfall near the area of landfall could top 18 inches.
Ian was likely to remain intact as it slowly crossed the Florida peninsula, spending a day or more dumping flooding rains across a broad area, including Tampa, Orlando, and Jacksonville.Views from southwest Florida ahead of Hurricane Ian's landfall.
