Hurricane Irene made landfall along the Outer Banks of North Carolina on August 27, 2011, as a Category 1 hurricane, bringing strong winds, heavy rainfall, and storm surges. It then tracked along the East Coast of the United States, impacting states such as Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, and Vermont.
Irene caused widespread flooding, power outages, and damage to homes, infrastructure, and agriculture, and its impact underscored the importance of hurricane preparedness, early warning systems, and coordinated response efforts to mitigate the risks associated with tropical cyclones and extreme weather events.
This time last year, the Northeast endured the aftermath of Hurricane Irene and an unexpected October snowstorm wreaking havoc in Massachusetts, resulting in extensive damage including downed trees and prolonged power outages.
