Hurricane Ian leaves trail of destruction across Florida, South Carolina

Global News published this video item, entitled “Hurricane Ian leaves trail of destruction across Florida, South Carolina” – below is their description.

In the U.S., Hurricane Ian has made its second landfall, this time in South Carolina.

It’s been downgraded to a post-tropical cyclone since first hitting as a category one hurricane. But there is still major flooding and extensive damage.

More than two hundred thousand people are without power and the storm is barrelling north with the threat of more high winds and powerful storm surges.

Jackson Proskow reports from hard-hit Fort Meyers — a once pristine place, now in shambles.

In This Story: Cyclone

In meteorology, a cyclone is a large scale air mass that rotates around a strong center of low atmospheric pressure. Cyclones are characterized by inward spiraling winds that rotate about a zone of low pressure and typically bring winds, rain, high waves and storm surges to the areas they pass.

In the Atlantic and the northeastern Pacific oceans, a tropical cyclone is generally referred to as a hurricane (from the name of the ancient Central American deity of wind, Huracan), in the Indian and south Pacific oceans it is called a cyclone, and in the northwestern Pacific it is called a typhoon.
