Residents desperately sought rescue Thursday as historically powerful Hurricane Ian, now a tropical storm, hammered Florida with heavy rain and strong winds, one of the strongest systems in U.S. history.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis described the storm as “500-year flooding event” and said Coast Guard helicopters were plucking trapped residents from the roofs of homes. Communities across the state were or will be swamped by the overwhelming waters, he said.

“The impacts of this storm are historic and the damage that has been done is historic,” DeSantis said. “We’ve never seen a flood event like this, we’ve never seen a storm surge of this magnitude.”

  1. Oh thank u man 💖😻kitty was thinkin is no one there to help me .!? She understand was in danger never argue to a man pickin him up so glad there are people big heart on animals,💞💖💗🙏🏾

  2. Now only if we could show the same kindness love and compassion for one another How the outlook On our Reality That in the midst of a hurricane we can show love compassion and happiness in the midst of a storm

  3. As a Florida resident i still can't believe how bad ian was!
    Good job on saving the kitty ! He was super cute! Every time I see a animal trapped or something I do that to, im an animal lover <3

  4. What's my reason to be booing this video? I still remember the 'Beverly Hillbillies' episode where; Ellie May Clampett, was teaching a male house cat how to swim. The F.C.C. & the S.P.C.A., failed to ban this episode. This 'Beverly Hillbillies' episode, leads to animal cruelty also. 😳 😢 😕 😐 😑 😞 😳

  5. It is great you saved that cat but to tell reporters you plan to keep
    the cat is messed up. That is someones baby. You dont get to keep an
    animal just because you found it or saved it. Please do the right thing
    and try to find that kittys owners, Im sure they are worried sick.

  6. Good guy! Thanks for being kind to a stranded animal. Look out for pets where you can, Florida. Kindness is it’s own reward.
