Hurricane Ian's most damaging winds have begun hitting Florida's southwest coast as the storm approaches landfall.

The Category Four hurricane is lashing the state with heavy rain and pushing a devastating storm surge.

Deanne Criswell with the US Federal Emergency Management Agency says Ian will cause a lot of water issues.

Fuelled by warm waters in the Gulf of Mexico, Ian grew to a catastrophic Category 4 hurricane overnight with top winds of 250 kilometres per hour.

US President Joe Biden is warning oil and gas companies against price gouging in the middle of the storm preparations.
