Hurricane Irene: Oh dear, not another disaster...

Hurricane Irene, which lashed parts of the U.S. East coast with ferocious 115mph wind gusts this morning has so far claimed the lives of at least five people, including one child. 370, 000 New Yorkers were ordered to evacuate their homes and businesses as experts warned Irene could wreak havoc when it hits the Big Apple because of storm surges pushing seawater ashore and heavy rainfall causing flooding.


The nation's largest subway system and arriving flights at the five main New York City-area airports were halted at noon on Saturday as Hurricane Irene spun its way up the Eastern Seaboard, threatening 20 per cent of the U.S. population. - Daily Mail.

Threatening 20percent of the US Population? Oh jeez, this can't be happening...
