Overwhelming and ferocious storm surge from Hurricane Ian is swamping Southwest Florida streets and cars under several feet of floodwater on Wednesday.

In the upscale coastal community of Naples, police have issued a curfew until further notice, warning people to stay off the roads.

"You cannot survive if you try and drive in this kind of weather," NBC News correspondent Ali Velshi said during a live report Wednesday afternoon.

    Leaving nearly new cars ($25,000 to $40,000) in a storm surge area is really sad. Those cars will be scrap after this is over.
