Some parts of central Florida (on the North bit of the circulation) got 16 inches of rain in like 12 hours (I saw one 16.8 total)

SO tomorrow we have a yellow warning for rain for west central Scotland

warning states: Accumulations of 20-30 mm are likely in a few hours with a
chance of up to 40 mm in one or two places

I expect to get 20mm in 24 hours

They got 400mm in 12

Tropical Storm Ian is expected to become a hurricane again later on Thursday before making landfall for the second time on Friday, the US National Hurricane Center (NHC) has said in its latest advisory.

It also issued a hurricane warning for the entire coast of South Carolina.

Tropical Storm Ian is now about 25 miles (40km) north-east of Cape Canaveral, where Nasa launches rockets into space at the Kennedy Space Center.

Ian's maximum sustained winds have picked up to about 70mph (110km/h) and it is expected to become a hurricane again by evening, and make landfall as a hurricane on Friday, with rapid weakening forecast after landfall.
