    This man held it together like a champion. His camera man too. THey had to be low key panicking seeing how quickly that water was rising and how the ocean kept surging in relentlessly. Glad they are ok. Prayers to all Florida's residents and visitors through this massive storm.

    Living through this, i can say seeing all the people in SWFL coming together to help each other was unbelievable
  • I'm in Naples Florida right now I live about 40 minutes away from where this is being filmed. I'm shocked the storm surge is this bad, usually we don't get that bad of storm surge (at least as far as I know). Edit: Before any more people say anything about climate change, just know that I'm not a climate change denier. Also before anyone else starts berating me for "not listening" and "not being ready", I'm surprised simply because storm surge numbers (as far as I recall) are usually not very accurate for our area and so I'm surprised at the accuracy of the stats this year. I was listening to the news and i prepared for the storm and I'm doing fine. In fact the forecasts showed that it wasn't gonna hit Naples as bad as it is now, it wasn't until Monday that they realized the path had changed.
  • Ali, this was the most impactful reporting that I saw during the hurricane. Kudos to you and your team!
  • Stay Safe Everyone In Florida From This Erupting Powerful Storm Ian🌪 Yikes ! 🐊
