Hurricane Maria lashed the Turks and Caicos Islands on Friday after destroying homes, causing widespread flooding, crippling economies and killing at least 30 people on Puerto Rico and other Caribbean islands.
Maria was the second major hurricane to hit the Caribbean this month and the strongest storm to hit the US territory of Puerto Rico in nearly 90 years. It completely knocked out the island's power and several rivers hit record flood levels. Puerto Rico Governor Ricardo Rossello said, "We have reports of complete devastation," adding that the storm's dangers were not over, as 'mudslides and surges, as well as flooding continues.'
Fourteen deaths were reported on the island nation of Dominica, which has a population of about 71,000. Two people were killed in the French territory of Guadeloupe and one in the US Virgin Islands.
