Ian is expected to exit Florida later in the day on Thursday and enter the Atlantic Ocean, and the question is what comes next as it moves north and could it regain hurricane status as soon as Friday, Sept. 30?
"Forecasters caution that Ian's center is looking more likely to move all the way across the Florida Peninsula and emerge over the Atlantic Ocean on Friday," according to AccuWeather.com. "Should that occur, Ian may drift off the coast of northeastern Florida for a period of time before turning back and moving inland again."
