Tropical Storm Ian, which impacted Florida as a hurricane on Wednesday, is gaining new strength as it approaches South Carolina today. Forecasts say landfall could take place this afternoon.<\/p>\n

The entire coast of South Carolina is under a hurricane warning. Once it makes landfall, Ian is expected to weaken back to a tropical storm as it makes its way across the southeastern US.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Florida is still assessing the mass of damage from Ian, mostly from flooding.<\/p>\n

National Hurricane Center\u2019s Advisory, issued 1200z Sep 30:<\/b><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At 800 AM EDT (1200 UTC), the center of Hurricane Ian was located\r\nnear latitude 31.4 North, longitude 79.1 West. Ian is moving toward\r\nthe north near 9 mph (15 km\/h). This general motion with an \r\nincrease in forward speed is expected this morning, followed by a \r\nturn toward the north-northwest by tonight. On the forecast track, \r\nthe center of Ian will approach and reach the coast of South \r\nCarolina today, and then move farther inland across eastern South\r\nCarolina and central North Carolina tonight and Saturday.\r\n\r\nMaximum sustained winds remain near 85 mph (140 km\/h) with higher\r\ngusts. Little change in strength is expected before Ian reaches the\r\ncoast later today. Rapid weakening is expected after landfall, and\r\nIan is forecast to become an extratropical low over North Carolina\r\ntonight or on Saturday. The low is then expected to dissipate by\r\nSaturday night.\r\n\r\nHurricane-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km) from\r\nthe center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 485\r\nmiles (780 km). A sustained wind of 40 mph (65 km\/h) and a gust to\r\n58 mph (93 km\/h) were recently reported at a WeatherFlow \r\nstation on Fort Sumter Range Front Light in South Carolina. \r\n\r\nThe estimated minimum central pressure is 984 mb (29.06 inches).<\/pre>\n
