re: HURRICANE/TS Season-Laura & Marco-1 Hitting Caribbean-Both Heading for US
Cyclone Isaias Reaches Canada After Killing Five in US
At least five people have been killed as Tropical Storm Isaias swept through US states on the Atlantic Coast.
BBC News 5 AUG, 2020.
Two died when a tornado struck a mobile home park in North Carolina and at least three more were killed in New York, Delaware and Maryland.
Isaias has since moved into south-eastern Canada and been downgraded to a post-tropical cyclone.
The Canadian Hurricane Center has warned of heavy rainfall over southern Quebec.
The ninth named storm of the year, Isaias hit Puerto Rico, Haiti and the Dominican Republic with hurricane strength winds last week killing at least two people. It uprooted trees, destroyed crops and homes and caused flooding and landslides.
