Confined To The Islands, Hawaiians Scramble To Prepare For Hurricane Lane

As emergency shelters opened, rain began to pour down and cellphone alerts went out, the approaching Hurricane Lane started to feel real for Hawaii residents. Lane was forecast to continue its northwest turn into the islands Thursday and be the most powerful storm to hit Hawaii since Hurricane Iniki in 1992. Hurricanes are ranked 1 to 5 according to what is known as the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Hurricane Lane is at Category 4, which means winds from 130 to 156 mph. CBS News correspondent Mireya Villarreal reports that Honolulu has 150 FEMA emergency responders ready to go and the U.S. Navy has moved ships out to sea to avoid the powerful storm.
