ABC News shares that Irma is responsible for the deaths of at least 37 people in the Caribbean and at least five in Florida. Nearly six million people in Florida are without power.
A flood watch has been issued from Daytona Beach to Jacksonville in Florida and through Savannah in Georgia, as flooding is expected.
