2. SOUNDBITE (English) Wyatt Kreel, sheltered in car during hurricane:
"It was well over 24 hours. I hunkered down in my car and stayed on TikTok and kind of made videos throughout the night of the situation at hand and what was going on. And just you know, I made sure I had plenty of food and water."

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Wyatt Kreel, sheltered in car during hurricane:
"It was pretty bad. The waters rushed up pretty high. I parked up against the Planet Fitness building where I like to exercise the most at, and I parked up on a good side hill, so I watched the water down below. I’ve stayed away from trees and poles. As the night went on, I did see trees start to fall over. Like I said, I’ve been a survivalist my whole life, so I knew what to stay away from and where to hunker down at."

STORYLINE:
Hurricane Milton brought powerful winds, a dangerous storm surge and flooding to much of Florida after making landfall along the Gulf Coast as a Category 3 storm.
It weakened to a Category 1 storm as it moved through Florida early Thursday. Power outages were widespread and deaths have been reported from severe weather.
There’s flooding in Clearwater, Florida, with cars submerged in water.
Wyatt Kreel said he stayed in his car overnight during the storm posting to social media.
"It was pretty bad. The waters rushed up pretty high.
