Earlier this week Hurricane Irene slammed Puerto Rico knocking out power, downing trees and flooding streets. Thankfully, no deaths were reported. Wishing all my relatives in Puerto Rico the very best as they recover from major flooding issues.
The most recent models suggest Irene will hit the east coast this weekend (beginning late Friday), producing potentially life-threatening damaging winds and torrential rainfall from the North Carolina Outer Banks through Maine. Millions could lose power this weekend and with the heavy rain ahead, there are major flooding concerns.
The above AccuWeather image gives a good overview of Irene's projected path.
