Quote: Could that be dry air weakening Ian and does that means that the flood risks are diminishing for Volusia County?
Sure looks like it. During its entire run to shore today the SE quad has been dry.
However due to rotation Volusia has a strong onshore flow so for the next 12-18 hours there is still a flooding risk there. Once Ian gets far enough inland the wind will switch to an offshore flow and by then it should be out of juice.
