The day Florida has been dreading is finally here.
Irma is now a Category 4 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 130 mph. It is expected to make landfall over Key West around 7 a.m. Sunday, before moving up Florida's west coast in the afternoon, the National Hurricane Center says.
Its outer rain bands lashed the Florida Keys late Saturday. A hurricane-force wind gust of 74 mph was recorded on Key West.
Key West residents tell CNN there was flooding on the city's streets early Sunday and KEYS Energy Services said all 29,000 of its customers -- from Key West to the Seven-Mile Bridge -- had lost power.
