Makes much more sense. Can you post where they say hours? I see where they say it is about to make landfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Winds are from the E at Myrtle Beach so the center must be close by. Maybe in between Georgetown and there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattPetrulli Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 At first thought winds were unimpressive vs yesterday with the wind field. However, a lot of damage reports are coming in and North Charleston is sustained at 51 gusting to 68. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using mb to gauge it is now a low end Cat 2. I agree that officially it will not be called that but it is a mid to high end Cat 1 by any gauge.

I did misquote the NHC's 2 PM update in my prior post saying hours til landfall when it had not quite made landfall. Apologies for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was saying landfall could be any moment, not that Ian had made landfall. because it hadn't made landfall until just now. near Georgetown. People need to be careful what they're posting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyewall Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Some solid gusts here in Raleigh. 59mph atop Carter Finley Stadium (NC State) and certainly 40-50 at the surface. You can hear the groan just off the deck. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan11295 Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Fort Myers Beach Aerial Footage Not a whole lot to say. Any buildings still standing close to the coast are likely built recently to current code both against wind and surge. The hotels probably fairly well although there are a few (like the one at the 8:30 mark) with major roof damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Normandy Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Good riddance to Ian. One of the wildest storms I’ve ever tracked. There are so many lessons to be learned from all agencies / weather enthusiasts from this storm. one last note to add: the comparison of charley and Ian is such a great case study of how size really really matters, and how two category 4 150 mph storms are not the same animal. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
