Irma, which was downgraded from a hurricane to a tropical storm early Monday morning, made its way to South Carolina after battering Florida on Sunday. Although the storm lost some of its strength as it crawled up the coast, heavy rains and forceful winds caused widespread flooding and over 36,000 power outages in Beaufort County as of 2:15 p.m. Monday.
S.C. Gov. Henry McMaster called for an evacuation of Hilton Head and other barrier islands effective Saturday morning.
