Hurricane Ian is lashing the coast of South Carolina after making landfall for a second time as a Category 1 storm.
The hurricane left a path of death and destruction in its wake, first in Cuba, then in Florida. At least nine people have been confirmed dead in the U.S., but officials expect that number to climb.
