Former Long Islander Darcy Stabile on
Wednesday was bracing for the worst of Hurricane Ian in Florida.
Stabile, of Venice, Florida, said she
was home
but had been
ordered to evacuate since her home was in zone A. Stabile
said most of her neighbors at that time stayed until Hurricane Ian powered
up to a Category 4 storm overnight, packing 155 mph winds. That is when Stabile
went to seek shelter.
“I have never seen anything this
bad, I have never been told to evacuate from my home,” says Stabile. “I know
it’s going to get much worse, but it’s pretty bad.”
