Tropical Storm Ian becomes Hurricane (again) as it nears South Carolina

Posted: Thursday, September 29, 2022. 4:16 pm CST.

By Zoila Palma Gonzalez: Forecasters at the National Hurricane Center (NHC) say that Ian has once again gained strength.

Hurricane Ian is aiming at South Carolina and Georgia with life-threatening flooding, storm surge, and strong winds.

On the forecast track, Ian will approach the coast of South Carolina on Friday.  The center will move farther inland across the Carolinas Friday night and Saturday.

Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 75 mph (120 km/h) with higher gusts.  Ian could slightly strengthen before landfall tomorrow and is forecast to rapidly weaken over the southeastern United States late Friday into Saturday.

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the center, and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 415 miles (665 km).

The combination of storm surge and the tide will cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by rising waters moving inland from the shoreline, NHC warns.
