September 20, 2017Hurricane Maria is a monster Cat 4 hurricane, and it just made landfall in Puerto Rico. It’s looking bad. We’re talking sustained winds of up to 155 mph. It’s awful, especially because they were just beginning to recover from Hurricane Irma.
“We have not experienced an event of this magnitude in our modern history,” Puerto Rico’s Gov. Ricardo Rossello said.
