Hurricane Ian on track to bring “life-threatening storm surge,” damaging winds and flooding to the Florida peninsula

Hurricane Ian is expected to bring “life-threatening storm surge,” damaging winds and dangerous flooding to Florida over the next few days. The Category 3 storm’s track shifted south and officials in Florida are urging residents to evacuate. CNN Meteorologist Jennifer Gray joins AC360 to give the latest update on when Hurricane Ian should be making landfall and when Floridians on the west coast should start feeling tropical storm force winds.

Plus, Americans Alexander John-Robert Drueke and Andy Tai Ngoc Huynh went to Ukraine to help fight against the Russians and were captured by Russian-backed forces in June. Both were freed last week after a prisoner swap was brokered by Saudi Arabia. Alex, along with his mother, Bunny Drueke, join AC360 for an exclusive interview to discuss his decision to fight in Ukraine, his capture and his reunion with his family.
