Hurricane Ian live updates: Cuba loses power; tornados strike Florida ahead of storm’s landfall
as of Tuesday evening, according to state media. Government crews were working through the night to try to restore power.
As it moved away from Cuba, Hurricane Ian bore down on Florida’s Gulf Coast with damaging winds, pounding waves and heavy rain ahead of an expected landfall Wednesday afternoon or evening. The massive storm, the first significant hurricane to hit the Sunshine State since 2018, is expected to move slowly toward the coast today, meaning an extended period of hurricane-force winds and torrential rain is likely to cause widespread and extended power outages and dangerous flooding.
Landfall is likely Wednesday afternoon, after which the storm will weaken, but threats of flooding and tornadoes will continue into Thursday across Florida. Ian’s slow movement and copious moisture could translate into severe inland flooding across the center of the state. Ian’s effects are expected to be felt beyond Florida by Thursday and into the weekend, with the weakened storm or its remnants forecast to bring heavy rain and storms into the Southeast.
