I’m in Fort Myers this morning, where Hurricane Ian has left devastation in its wake

Heartbreaking scenes as the full scope of damage comes into view

[Sara Girard @SaraGirardNews]

Power is out @WINKNews in Fort Myers and my former colleagues make it work. Broadcasting via cellphone from the assignment desk since the studio is flooded.

Screenshot from @RachCoxRosenTV. My heart is with all of you right now. #Ian

[Switching Codes with Eric Deggans @Deggans]

Dear @weatherchannel: please let the reporter covering the hurricane in Fort Myers go inside. There is no shot worth seeing someone struggle to form words in 100 mph winds in front of churning waters.

[Jay Cordeira @jaycordeira]

The @NHC_Atlantic is *really good* at their job. Comparison between NHC advisory #004 from 9/23 (when storm was "just" a depression) and this morning's advisory #023A. Can't really do much better than that -- center of forecast track and fix are w/in eye wall diameter distance

Will Meadowbrook Golf Course ever reopen?

The owner says it comes down to his ability to get permission for a new Topgolf-style driving range. He made his pitch to the county on Wednesday: https://t.co/51Z0YbJd42 via @WUFTNews

[Katie Hyson @katiehyson23]

“Who will listen?” Alonzo asked when I first sat down with him. He told me he’d been waiting and praying for decades for someone to come along and tell this story.
Everybody’s listening now, Alonzo, thanks to you and the rest of Mr. Parker’s band. ❤️

[Chabeli Carrazana @ChabeliC_]

Thanks to @Marketplace for having me on to chat about our story on the COVID-19 workforce — the folks who tested, vaccinated and contact traced Americans.

Most of them were women of color. And now those jobs are ending. What comes next?

@ChabeliH @Marketplace Still swelling with pride each time I hear you on a Marketplace segment. Can't believe it's been nearly 10 years since you were my student. Keep doing what you do, Chabeli!

Taylor Hawkins passed away just hours before Foo Fighters were due to play Festival Estéreo in Colombia. In lieu of the performance, candles were placed on stage to honor Hawkins.

[The Associated Press @AP]

Taylor Hawkins, the longtime drummer for the Foo Fighters, has died. The band called the 50-year-old's death a “tragic and untimely loss.”

[Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal]

Watching Taylor Hawkins play the drums and listening to him anchor the Foo Fighters was one of life’s great joys. The news of his death is just heartbreaking. RIP, Taylor.
