Videos Show Hurricane Ian Bringing More Chaos As It Makes Second Landfall in South Carolina

NOAA

After carving a path of destruction across Florida earlier this week, Hurricane Ian restrengthened into a Category 1 storm while over the Atlantic before turning inland again to make landfall on Friday afternoon just after 2:15 p.m. in South Carolina between Charleston and Myrtle Beach.

In the latter, NOAA reported that water levels were more than five feet above normal high tide just before Ian made landfall — the third-highest water level on record there. 

While less severe than what Florida saw from Ian, the hurricane brought storm surge, flash flooding, and powerful winds to South Carolina as videos show water pouring into neighborhood streets as trees whip around in the 80+ mph winds and piers get destroyed by roiling waves.

Before making landfall, Hurricane Ian's eyewall lashed South Carolina's coast with driving rain and whipping wind, triggering power outages as saturated ground and strong winds saw trees take down power lines. More than 150,000 customers in South Carolina are already without power while Ian's outer bands have already caused roughly 25,000 outages in North Carolina.
