During the month of August “Hurricane Irene” hit the east coast of the USA. The hurricane left extensive flood and wind damage along its path through the Caribbean, the United States East Coast and as far north as Atlantic Canada. Considerable damage was caused in upstate New York and Vermont, which suffered the worse floods in years.
