Floridians are also making viral content during the storm with some of them dangerously going out into the hurricane and one man helping save a stranded cat and another rescuing a dog.

Ian can even be seen from 22,000 miles into space.
Of course, the media used the hurricane to attack GOP Governor Ron DeSantis and to push their phony climate change agenda.
In a CNN clip, Bill Weir stood in the storm and told viewers, “This is exactly what climate scientists have been warning about for a long time.”

We’re over halfway through a very slow hurricane season and Ian is the first to make landfall in the U.S. and Joy is ranting about hurricanes becoming stronger and more frequent.
They lash out at DeSantis again for criticizing their climate religion and lecture him. pic.twitter.com/QOD2JLLIRW— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) September 28, 2022
