As Hurricane Ian tracked toward the Florida coast,Western Archives thousands turned to webcams for valuable information. The storm rapidly intensified into a Category 4 hurricane, and the National Hurricane Center’s predicted path was entirely focused on central Florida.
The storm slowly moved inland, turned northward, and carved across central Florida in the night. Predictions about Hurricane Ian's slowdown before landfall had even occurred had links to climate change, which has contributed to an increase in hurricanes stalling. Research into the relationship between climate change and Ian's effects is still needed.

See the following webcams below to see for yourself what it looked like as Hurricane Ian approaches.
WWLive appears to be an aggregator of webcam feeds, and that creator has combined feeds from Dania Beach, Tampa, Fort Myers Beach, Cocoa Beach, Jacksonville, along with an unlabeled parking lot feed.
Hundreds of people were watching the beach webcam of the PierSide Grill restaurant in the Fort Myers area Wednesday morning, but that live stream appeared to have ended as of 11a.m. ET Wednesday. It showed a stretch of beach not far from where Hurricane Ian could potentially make landfall.
A YouTube channel called Florida Traffic collected live feeds of traffic webcams operated by the Florida Department of Transportation and paired it with Tampa Bay-area weather radio audio from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
This 17-minute clip shows road conditions at the height of the storm:
