Hurrican Irene

Hurrican Irene left extensive flood and wind damage through the United States East Coast. People had to evacuate the area and transportation was shut down all along the east coast, stranding residents in shelters, airports, and train stations, out of their homes. Flooding washed out roads and destroyed homes, and evacuation orders were demanded for hundreds of thousands. This hurrican killed several people, and left a damage worth $13.1 billion. This natural disaster impacted many by them losing their loved ones, losing homes, having to live in shelters and practically losing everything.
