Satellite images reveal the scale of devastation of Hurricane Irma
Last week Digital Globe published a series of striking satellite images taken before and after Hurricane Irma. It shows a terrible scale of destruction caused by one of the most powerful storms ever recorded in the Atlantic Ocean.
The imagery has been provided for a few affected areas but lets us see the scale of the damage. The landscape after Irma looks like a war zone. Torn-off roofs, damaged buildings, downed trees. Take a look at these before -> after images:
Codrington Port, Barbuda
Parham Town, Tortola
Necker Island
Key West, Florida
Philipsburg, Sint Maarten
Providenciales, Turks and Caicos
