AFTER KILLING AT LEAST 19 IN FLORIDA, HURRICANE IAN HEADS ALONG THE EAST COAST

Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina are preparing for the worst, the hurricane arriving with peaks at 140 km / h.

Managing the aftermath for some, anticipating for others. While Hurricane Ian left considerable damage during its violent passage through Florida on Thursday, where it claimed at least 19 lives according to CNN , the United States is already expecting to see significant damage on the east coast this Friday. The storm, reclassified as a hurricane on Thursday evening , continues to strengthen and now threatens Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina.

According to the latest estimates from the National Hurricane Center, based in Miami, the winds inside the hurricane are now up to 140 km / h.

The hurricane is expected to hit the east coast early Friday, the same source said, adding that southern Virginia could also be affected.

The east coast is getting ready

Faced with these forecasts, the States concerned are already beginning to take measures to best protect their populations. "Heavy rain can be expected across the state and dangerous storm surges in low-lying coastal areas," South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster said earlier.

In particular, the governor suggests that residents plan to take refuge on higher ground, less prone to flooding. According to the same source, local agencies are also preparing to open emergency shelters to best respond to the strength of the hurricane.

In Georgia, the same anticipation: although the state believes it can "avoid the worst case scenario", senior officials are urging the population to be ready to face tornadoes and consequent floods. The entire North Carolina coast is also expected to see the hurricane. After the major power cuts in Florida - 3.6 million homes were affected - the state is planning similar consequences.

million households still without electricity

For its part, Florida is just beginning to recover from Hurricane Ian's passing on Friday. Already, in order to better manage the reconstructions, curfew measures are decreed locally: this is the case in the county of Collier in order to prevent looting and thefts from taking place during the night, as reported by the Washington Post .

“There are still a lot of unknowns to face with rising waters, debris on the roads and many people have evacuated their homes and businesses,” county police said on their Facebook page.
