Almost all of Collier County's 300,000 residents were without power Monday night. Jonathan Vigliotti reports.

Miami evacuations
Communities like Miami Beach emptied out as 670,000 people were ordered to evacuate, the most in the county's history. The winds are picking up, and once they reach 40 miles per hour, first responders will not respond to emergencies, officials said. Mark Strassmann reports.

Hurricane Irma is making its way northwest toward Florida. CBS Boston chief meteorologist Eric Fisher has the latest forecast.
