The wider storm
Major Hurricane Irma made landfall in southwest Florida on Marco Island as a category 3 hurricane in the afternoon on September 10th. The storm traveled north through southwest Florida through the morning on September 11th. Effects from Irma were felt across South Florida from September 9th through September 11th. Irma had reached a Category 5 strength and a minimum central pressure of 914mb before weakening before landfall.
The strength and size of Hurricane Irma allowed the effects to expand across all of South Florida waters. The wind, waves, surge created dangerous life-threatening marine conditions.
