I have never witnessed a hurricane, but it must be terrifying to be in the situation of the people who experience it and who face it with great courage.
You can never escape natural disasters, I mean no one’s ever really prepared for it to happen with this photo back in 2011 it all looks so much simpler. I can’t believe its been a decade after the hurricane we’re facing a pandemic right now where hundreds and thousands of people were killed. Makes you think does it?

This looks like it should have been a feature photo in a magazine article about the effects of Hurricane Irene on upstate New York! 🙂

Very good recovery I would say. If I did not know any better I would not have known that a tornado ravaged this town. A very outstanding job!!!!

I haven’t seen a hurricane ever in my country. But, I feel it’s a good recovery there by them.

At least the worst is over. Hurricanes are some of the worst natural disasters one can ever experience.

Our area has been flooded recently due to heavy rains that lasted almost a week. I can still remember the damage it has given us.

I feel the pains of people affected. I hope people in authority help them out

Damages this would have caused would have been much. Water is even more dangerous than fire, I was shocked seeing the damage water did last year.

I’ve heard that hurricanes can be very destructive, I feel really bad for people who are fecuently exposed to this type of disaster.

A photo of a real life hero! A lot of people are probably thanking him and his family until today.

We all face hard time in our lives. We get stronger if we make it through it all.

I know how this feels. I have been a hurricane victim myself.

This reminds me of hurricane Katrina. Those were some sad times indeed.
