Nearly 600,000 homes and businesses still without electricity

Several days after skies cleared and winds died down in Florida, the impact of Hurricane Ian was still being felt on Monday, when some victims may be without power for another week and others had to be rescued from homes flooded by waters that refused to recede.

The storm continues to move up the east coast of the United States and dump heavy rains there. Meteorologists have warned that offshore winds blowing towards land could push even more water into an already flooded Chesapeake Bay. Virginia's Hampton Roads area could be hit with its worst flooding in a decade.

The cities of Norfolk and Virginia Beach have declared states of emergency, pending Monday's magnitude of tides. Coastal flooding is possible in North Carolina from the Outer Banks to Long Island.

The death toll stands at at least 68: 61 in Florida, four in North Carolina and three in Cuba, where Ian made landfall on September 27.

Relief efforts continued Monday in Florida. More than 1,600 people have already been rescued across the state, Florida officials say.

Fort Myers Beach Mayor Ray Murphy told the NBC network that those affected who have been evacuated generally cannot yet return home, as relief operations will continue for a few more days.

Washed-out bridges, flooded roads, sporadic cell service, a lack of running water, and power and internet outages have left hundreds of thousands of people nearly cut off from the world. The situation in some places may not improve for several days, as the rivers overflow and the rain that has fallen has nowhere to flow.

Some 600,000 homes and businesses remained without power across Florida as of Monday morning, up from 2.6 million at the height of the crisis. The authorities hope to have reconnected customers whose electricity infrastructure is intact by Sunday, but they have warned that this infrastructure will have to be rebuilt in some places.

President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden are expected in Florida on Wednesday.

In Virginia, bad weather forced the US Navy to postpone the deployment of the country's most sophisticated aircraft carrier, the USS  Gerald R Ford , which was due to sail from Norfolk on Monday to participate in NATO exercises in the Pacific.

Fifty Venezuelans sent to Martha's Vineyard

About 50 Venezuelan immigrants seeking asylum in the United States landed Wednesday afternoon on the island of Martha's Vineyard, off Cape Cod. And it wasn't for sightseeing. Lost and flabbergasted, these people were in spite of themselves at the heart of a political quarrel between Democrats and Republicans on the thorny question of American immigration policies. They met at Martha's Vineyard on the initiative of the Republican Governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis, who wanted to lecture the Democrats whose more liberal policies on irregular immigrants are irritating the opposing camp. “Residents of Martha's Vineyard should be thrilled,” quipped Christina Pushaw, a member of Mr. DeSantis' team, on Twitter. Illegal aliens will make the city more diverse, which is a strength. Nope ? » Irregular or not, the Venezuelans have received help from the inhabitants of Martha's Vineyard, an island known to be frequented by stars from all walks of life. "The community has...

The memory of the victims of September 11 is honored 21 years later

(New York) The United States on Sunday honored the memory of the nearly 3,000 people killed in the worst attacks ever known, September 11, 2001, which changed "the course of American history", according to the president Joe Biden. In New York, crowds gathered near the impressive Manhattan Memorial Museum fell silent several times for minutes of silence, marking the exact moments when the four planes hijacked by Islamist commandos crashed, and when the two towers of the World Trade Center had collapsed in a deluge of steel and dust. In the audience in New York, Vice President Kamala Harris listened to the very long list of victims' names. Joe Biden participated in another ceremony, at the Pentagon. "The grief fades a little over time, but the permanent absence of my father remains just as present," said the son of Jon Leslie Albert, one of the victims of the attacks, after reading his father's name. Another relative of the victim, calling on the political fig...

NFL draft 2022: Packers, Chiefs, Eagles among 10 teams with most at stake

This NFL draft will have heavier consequences for some general managers and coaches than others. Not every NFL team has made the same buy-in for this year's draft. Several franchises have opted against waiting until the end of April to cash in on their chips, instead flipping their picks to acquire big-ticket veteran quarterbacks and receivers in trades. That divergence has created an imbalance in draft capital, as eight teams are without first-round picks this year while another eight own two. https://www.youonline.online/post/1110212_https-public-flourish-studio-story-1263167-https-phytocet-cbd-oil-usa-jimdosite-com-https-buyphytocetcbd-blogspot-com-2022-04-phytocet-cbd-oil-usa-html-https-bumppy-com-tm-read-blo.html https://www.geeb.xyz/post/1679426_https-public-flourish-studio-story-1263167-https-phytocet-cbd-oil-usa-jimdosite.html https://bumppy.com/tm/post/75819_https-public-flourish-studio-story-1263167-https-phytocet-cbd-oil-usa-jimdosite.html https://www.b-webdesign.org/dir...
