FORT MYERS, FLA. — Crews were seen taking down the iconic Times Square Clock on Fort Myers Beach Tuesday ahead of Hurricane Milton's landfall.
Iconic Times Square Clock Tower Removed Ahead Of Hurricane Milton
The clock just recently returned to the area last year after being damaged during Hurricane Ian.
The storm surge from Hurricane Ian tore the clock off its base. Crews moved the current clock to a safe location during Hurricane Milton to prevent damage this time.
Along with the infamous clock went most of the Fort Myers Beach residents. All restaurants, hotels, and businesses are also closed.
Senior Reporter Ryan Kruger has more as a curfew goes into effect for the area:
