8:30 a.m. Wednesday, Sept. 28

As winds rise to tropical storm force around Sarasota County, so do the reports of wires down and power outages as Hurricane Ian moves closer to a landfall with a broad field of wind and rain.

In its most recent report, FPL said 13,000 Sarasota County customers are without power, though 380 had their electricity restored. There are nearly 290,000 customers of FPL in Sarasota County. 

In Manatee County, 540 customers were without power, though more than 2,600 had previously been out but were restored. There are nearly 200,000 customers of FPL in Manatee County 

At this point in the storm, only Miami-Dade had more outages than Sarasota reported, more than 18,000. 

Reports of downed wires began coming in shortly after midnight in the southern sections of Sarasota County, spreading north throughout the early-morning hours into dawn. 

According to 911 reports, more than 35 individual reports have already been recorded. 

Dozens of utility repair crews and their trucks have gathered for days at the parking lot of Robarts Arena on Fruitville Road, preparing to deploy. 

On its website, FPL posted a statement saying restoration efforts will largely depend on storm conditions. 

"We're responding to Ian and are unable to provide a restoration estimate at this time. Please know we will continue to restore outages, including in-between the storm's weather bands as long as it is safe to do so. We appreciate your patience. Please stay safe."
