IAN NOW A TROPICAL STORM… …BUT STILL EXPECTED TO PRODUCE STRONG WINDS, HEAVY RAINS, AND STORM SURGE ACROSS PORTIONS OF FLORIDA, GEORGIA, AND THE CAROLINAS
At 500 AM EDT (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Ian was located near latitude 28.0 North, longitude 80.9 West. Ian is moving toward the northeast near 8 mph (13 km/h). A turn toward the north-northeast is expected later today, followed by a turn toward the north and north-northwest with an increase in forward speed Friday and Friday night. On the forecast track, the center of Ian is expected to move off the east-central coast of Florida later today and then approach the coast of South Carolina on Friday. The center will move farther inland across the Carolinas Friday night and Saturday.
