Hurricane Ike Photographs (September 2008)
Hurricane Ike has been blamed for 164 deaths. Of these, 74 were in Haiti, which was already trying to recover from the impact of three storms earlier that year: Fay, Gustav, and Hanna. In the United States, 82 people were killed, and 202 are still missing. Damages from Ike in US coastal areas are estimated at $27 billion with additional damage of up to $4 billion in Cuba, and $500 million in the Bahamas, amounting to a total of $31.5 billion in damages for the United States, Cuba, and the Bahamas alone. Ike was the third costliest U.S. hurricane of all time, behind Hurricane Andrew of 1992 and Hurricane Katrina of 2005.

Re: Hurricane Ike Photographs (September 2008)
Here's some pictures I took of my neighborhood. We didn't have power for almost 2 weeks and it pretty much just flooded and knocked a bunch of trees down. When it got too hot to stay at the house, we decided to go up north. A 3 hour drive turned into almost 8 because we had to go around huge trees and light posts in a lot of spots.

Re: Hurricane Ike Photographs (September 2008)
the eye passed directly over my house, i ran naked through the night during the worst part, you don't feel alive until you go running bare ass naked though a F-5 hurricane, challenging all that comes to you, so much greatness, on its own level then came 2 weeks of night bike rides while running from the SWARMS of cops you would go to jail if caught outside after 12am, oh god no power was fun, everyone who couldn't handle it was a BITCH |
