Florida and Friends: A 2022 Hurricane Season Romp (We Use That Term Loosely)
Ah, Florida. The Sunshine State. Land of beaches, theme parks, and... well, in 2022, also the land of some seriously unwelcome hurricane visitors. Buckle up, because we're about to take a trip down memory lane (or should we say, hurricane lane?) to revisit the two storms that decided to crash the Florida party in 2022.

| What Two Hurricanes Hit Florida In 2022 |
Hurricane Ian: The Grande Dame (of Destruction)
First up, we have Hurricane Ian. This wasn't your average "tropical depression that might bring some rain" situation. No, sir (or madam, or non-binary friend). Ian rolled up like a boss, making landfall in southwest Florida as a Category 4 behemoth. We're talking powerful winds, epic storm surge, and enough rain to fill every swimming pool in the state (and maybe a few bathtubs in neighboring Georgia).
QuickTip: Don’t skim too fast — depth matters.
Fun fact (that's not exactly fun): Ian was the strongest storm to hit southwest Florida in terms of wind speed. Not exactly a record you want your state to hold, unless maybe you're in the hurricane-themed souvenir business.
Tip: Use this post as a starting point for exploration.
Hurricane Nicole: The Not-So-Surprise Encore
Just when you thought Florida had dodged the November hurricane bullet, enter Nicole. This storm decided to pull a Beyonc� and drop a surprise album, appearing in early November as a tropical storm that cozied up the coast before making landfall near Vero Beach.
Tip: Pause whenever something stands out.

Here's the thing about Nicole: while it wasn't quite the heavyweight that Ian was, it still packed a punch. Heavy rain and strong winds caused flooding and left some areas looking a little worse for wear. Basically, Nicole was like that friend who shows up after the main party is over and eats all the leftover pizza. Not cool, Nicole.
QuickTip: Slow scrolling helps comprehension.
So, That's It, Folks!
Well, folks, that's the whirlwind tour (pun intended) of Florida's hurricane encounters in 2022. Let's hope 2023 is a little less... eventful, weather-wise.
