As Hurricane Ian strikes Cuba, Florida is bracing for a damaging Category 4 storm

Jesus Rodrigues loads wood into his vehicle Monday outside a Home Depot store in Orlando, Fla., in preparation for the arrival of Hurricane Ian.

Ian had top winds of 125 mph and storm surge up to 14 feet as it moved over the western end of Cuba. It could head for Tampa and St. Petersburg next, the first direct hit on those cities in a century.
