DEVELOPING STORY: Here’s the latest on Hurricane Ian. It made landfall around Sanibal Island.
- Hurricane Ian bears down on the Florida coast as a Category 4 storm with maximum sustained winds up to 155 mph
- Eye wall is moving on shore threatening catastrophic storm surge
- More than 315,000 Florida customers are without power
Somehow a traffic cam on Sanibel, Island is still live during the eye wall right now during #HurricaneIan!! This is absolutely insane and extremely sad, my thoughts are with everyone in the area. #Florida #StormSurge #Hurricane #Ian pic.twitter.com/Rg1zMN9845

#HurricaneIan what you’re looking at is a live street cam from Sanibel Island. This is only the beginning of the devastating storm surge this hurricane will bring. You can see the water is almost as high as the mailbox. This is at Lindgren Blvd & E Gulf Dr. @CBSMiami pic.twitter.com/jjsm202e8G
