Hurricane Ian, a powerful, massive Category 5 storm, devastated Florida in September 2022. This was the most deadly hurricane to strike Florida since 1935. It caused billions in damage, and many deaths and injuries.
Jim Cantore, a reporter from the New York Times, was one of those brave reporters who went out into the storm. Cantore was nearly blown off his feet by a tree branch that was flying past him at speeds of 100 miles per hour during a live broadcast.
