Biden Paints Bleak Picture in Ian’s Aftermath

The famous “wish tree”, a Florida Ficus at the Salvador Dalí Museum in downtown St. Petersburg, Fla., was toppled by strong winds from Hurricane Ian on Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022. Ian barreled across the Florida peninsula early Thursday, with officials still assessing the damage but warning that the storm could set flooding records and go down as one of the worst storms to ever hit the state.
