Hurricane Ian, a Category 4 storm, has caused many American citizens to be forced out of their homes or has left no infrastructure for them to return to. The storm first struck the coast of Fort Myers before migrating toward the Carolinas, leaving communities demolished by wind and flooding, ultimately forcing businesses to shut down and leaving Florida with billions of dollars in reconstruction. The damage caused so far has been introductory, but it is evident that the hurricane will be highly disruptive to Florida’s economy over the next ten days with power shortages, suspension of energy production, impact on agricultural crops such as oranges, and flight cancellations.
