MIAMI — Hurricane Ian has left its mark on Florida.
Thousands of Floridians will have to start over and rebuild after the storm struck Southwest Florida as a deadly Category 4 hurricane, damaging bridges and roadways, destroying homes and upending everyday life. People in other parts of the state are also still reeling from the storm, which brought historic storm surge to the Keys and flooding rain across Central Florida.
And Ian, one of the strongest storms to ever hit the U.S., is a stark reminder that hurricane season isn’t over yet. There are still 12 other storm names on the main list for the 2022 Atlantic hurricane season, which started on June 1 and officially ends Nov. 30.
