Hurricane Ian made landfall near Georgetown, South Carolina, Friday afternoon with sustained winds of 85 mph, battering the state with damaging winds, heavy rain and life-threatening storm surge after killing at least 25 people in Florida and leaving behind a trail of apocalyptic destruction.

Ian, which restrengthened in the Atlantic, is unleashing lethal flooding and enough force to alter the coastal landscape, but it’s expected to rapidly transition into a post-tropical system, with a decrease in its strongest winds as it pushes inland.
