A resurgent Hurricane Ian has made a second landfall in the United States – this time in South Carolina – a day after the storm carved a path of destruction across central Florida that left rescue crews racing to reach trapped residents.
Ian, which had weakened to a tropical storm during its march across Florida, was upgraded to a Category 1 hurricane as it churned above the Atlantic Ocean towards South Carolina on Friday, the US National Hurricane Center (NHC) said.
