Hurricane Ian has nearly reached Category 5 strength as it begins making landfall in Florida.

The storm has already begun to knock out power to parts of Florida, with winds of up to 155 mph and gusts up to 190 mph.

Along with catastrophic wind comes the risk of flooding and a 'life-threatening' storm surge of up to 16 feet.

Officials are warning residents to shelter in place and say it's too late to evacuate at this point.

The storm will make landfall in the early afternoon.
