Hurricane Ian strengthened into a powerful Category 4 hurricane on Wednesday morning, hours before it was expected to make landfall along Florida's Gulf Coast.
"Hurricanes are a concern, but I don't freak out about it. You do what you have to do. You get your supplies, make sure you have flashlights, do your laundry ahead of time in case you lose power," she told ABC News. "We bought bottled water and wine. We put gas in the car. The store shelves were not empty."
Ken Graham, director of NOAA's National Weather Service, warned people sheltering in place to not venture out once the storm passes over.
