Hurricane Ian carved a path of destruction through central Florida, with extreme winds, heavy rains and a torrent of waters flooding in from the Gulf of Mexico.
Roads and bridges were washed away, coastal cities were swamped and electrical systems were wrecked – leaving millions of homes and businesses without power.

We’ll hear an eyewitness account of the destruction in Ft. Myers and check in with NPR’s Greg Allen in Sarasota, where many neighborhoods are flooded.
