Hurricane Maria Devastates Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

in #hurricane7 years ago




Yet another Hurricane is wreaking havoc on the Atlantic Ocean and mainly, Puerto Rico. It's the worst hurricane to hit the island in over 80 years. Hurricane Maria has knocked out the electricity in 100% of the island.

3.4 Million people live on the island. All of them are without power tonight. The devastation has destroyed thousands of homes and displaced most of the island's residents. The pictures that come out tomorrow morning will be tough to view.

The category 4 hurricane had winds of over 145 miles per hour. With all of the destruction of power lines and cell phone towers, it could be weeks until everyone regains phone use and electricity.
Please keep the citizens of Puerto Rico in your thoughts and prayers and if you are able, donate to Red Cross, who is already on the ground there. Thank you for reading and following me @scottybuckets Cheers!
