At least51 people have died in the U.S. after Ian pummeled Florida’s western coast as a massive hurricane before barreling through the Carolinas Friday, according to AP.
The latest: About 1.75 million customers were without power in the southeast U.S. on Saturday morning as affected states shifted toward recovery efforts in the hurricane’s aftermath.
An elderly couple in Florida was found dead after their home lost power and the oxygen machines they rely on shut off, AP reported.
Two people died in a car crash on Thursday afternoon in Putnam County, which was inundated with rain as the storm passed over the state.
What happened: Ian made landfall Friday as a Category 1 storm in South Carolina, carrying a “life-threatening” storm surge of 4 to 7 feet, Axios’ Andrew Freedman writes.
What they’re saying: The hurricane “is likely to rank among the worst in the nation’s history,” Biden said Friday at a press briefing. “You have all seen on television homes and property wiped out. It’s gonna take months, years to rebuild.”
NHC officials warned Thursday night that many hurricane-related deaths occur days after the storm has passed while people are recovering.
