Hurricane effects: $50 billion in damage

Versiunea în limba română

Extreme natural phenomena cause huge damage. An example comes from the United States of America. More than two million homes were without power in Florida after Hurricane Milton left at least 16 dead and caused about $50 billion in damage. Even though the disaster was major, the US did not experience the worst. "We didn't know the worst case scenario, but we were hit hard," said Ron DeSantis, the governor of this state in the southeast of the United States, already hit at the end of September by another powerful hurricane, Helene, which killed at least 237 people, including 15 in Florida. "Specialists estimate that (Milton) caused approximately 50 billion dollars in damage," said US President Joe Biden. Sixteen people lost their lives in several counties, according to local authorities, the most affected being Saint Lucie (six dead), on the east coast of the peninsula. This area, like others, was hit hard by tornadoes that formed just before the hurricane made landfall near Sarasota. Milton then crossed the peninsula eastward during the night, reaching the Atlantic. Florida, the third most populous American state (22 million inhabitants), is frequently affected by hurricanes. But climate change, the warming of the seas make their rapid intensification more likely and increase the risk of stronger phenomena, according to scientists.
