Ian made its Gulf coast landfall at Cayo Costa Wednesday afternoon, and it brought catastrophic storm surge and damaging winds from the Naples area northward to near Sarasota. As of this writing, damage assessment is just beginning. Ian has finally weakened into a tropical storm as it makes its way to the Atlantic coast of central and northern Florida. Tropical storm warnings are in place for Florida’s Atlantic coast from Boca Raton northward and for the Gulf coast from Bonita Beach northward to the Big Bend area.
