Ian strengthened into a major category 3 hurricane on Tuesday. The hurricane is expected to make landfall with at least 100 mph winds, several inches of rain, and a storm surge of 10 feet. "They are going to be going door to door, in areas where they can search for survivors in areas affected," said Saunders. "If they can’t get to them on the ground, [crews are] taking numerous boats with them."Centerpoint Energy also sent nearly 100 crews from Houston to help restore power in Florida.
