Hurricane Ian was a large category 4 Atlantic hurricane. It was the deadliest hurricane to hit Florida since the 1935 Labor Day hurricane. Hurricane Ian caused at least 157 fatalities with 5 people in Cuba, 146 in Florida, 5 in North Carolina, and 1 in Virginia as of November 1, according to local officials. Ian caused catastrophic damage with losses estimated to be more than over $50 billion. When Hillgrove students were asked how they were affected by hurricane Braxton Powell, “my grandparents' house was flooded, and they have a lot of damages they must repair and now they must find more money to fix their home. And my parents must help them pay for some of the damages.” This hurricane caused physical damage such as tearing down whole towns and putting whole neighborhoods under water. For example, in fort Myers Florida, people have said “there's barely anything left.” The whole town must be rebuilt and repaired. All the original buildings that have been there for decades and decades were destroyed by this hurricane. Lukas Power said, “this hurricane kind of scared me because it was strong enough to take lives and ruin buildings and there's not really anything people can do to stop it. The fact that it is strong enough to tear down buildings is really chilling.” The damage it caused will take years to get back to its original state. It will also be a very expensive process for people who must rebuild businesses and their homes. Many people don’t have the funds to afford housing while rebuilding their new homes. We asked Brody Bond how he thinks he can help these people who can't afford to fix the damages the hurricane caused them, “there are many programs that Hurricane Ian was a large category 4 Atlantic hurricane.
