More than 100 people have been reported dead in the U.S. five days after Hurricane Ian slammed into the west coast of Florida as a powerful Category 4 storm. Lee County Sheriff Carmine Marceno announced Monday that 54 deaths have now been confirmed in that county, as the total number of Florida fatalities rose to at least 99 as of Monday night.
The CBS News figure is higher than Florida's official state tally because in some cases, county officials are confirming deaths more quickly than state officials.
Four storm-related deaths have been reported in North Carolina, bringing the U.S. toll to at least 103.
