Kim Mullins, a resident of Grand Bahama Island, told ABC's "Good Morning America" that she lived through Hurricane Floyd in 1999, Hurricanes Frances and Jeanne in 2004, Hurricane Wilma in 2005, Hurricane Matthew in 2016 and Hurricane Irma in 2017. But she said Hurricane Dorian is the most menacing beast yet.
"One hundred eighty-five miles per hour winds, that is something that I cannot prepare for, and that's something I don't know what to expect," Mullins said. "The winds, they sound crazy. It literally feels as though something is about to happen even though my house is secure. It's something I'm actually afraid of. I don't think I've ever been afraid before like this."
