Hurricane hunter Nick Underwood captured photos and video of the stadium effect of Hurricane Dorian’s eyewall
Hurricane Dorian"defied description" for people living in the Bahamas this past week, according to CNN's Paula Newton, who just returned from the Abacos.
Dorian slammed into the Abaco Islands as a Category 5 storm on Sunday, knocking homes to the ground and flooding streets. Rescue and recovery efforts have since been underway across the Bahamas. Coast Guard crews have rescued 135 people and six pets in the Bahamas since the storm began."I spoke to one man who was basically on his kitchen cupboards. Had this much room to breathe between the ceiling and his kitchen cupboards. He went under. His son pulled him up and he said to himself, I found the strength because I didn't want my son to see me die that way.
Dorian — the strongest hurricane ever to make landfall in the Bahamas — moved only 30 miles in 30 hours from Monday into Tuesday. "[Residents] were dodging projectiles flying out of the sky. They were pulling mattresses off of their beds to hold in doors and windows and garages that were coming over on top of them. They cannot even describe what they have been through and even to them, when they see the destruction in front of them, Kate, they cannot believe those who have survived. They cannot believe they've survived these are hardened people with these storms. You can name them.
