Nguyen Hung Cuong, a paper artist in Hanoi, folds paper into elaborate origami designs of animals, insects or fish, using only a single sheet of paper. Many of his creations feature intricate details, like ears, gills, complex pincers, and roaring mouths. Some of his most challenging creations, such as his piece of a winged horse, a scorpion fighting a snake, or a shark mounting waves, took him months to prepare.
Multiple houses were severely damaged and thousands of residents were left without electricity after Hurricane Matthew ripped through Charlotte in North Carolina on Sunday. No casualties were reported but numerous houses sustained severe damage in the storm. Trees were uprooted and fell onto houses and power lines, destroying property and snapping electricity wires like twigs. Emergency services have been dispatched to Charlotte to examine the situation and begin clearing up the damages. Despite the fact that Charlotte was spared the worst rain and wind of Hurricane Matthew, other people across the state suffered worse damages. More than half a million power outages were reported in North Carolina on Sunday morning and large parts of the state have been flooded, with some areas being hit by as much as 16 inches of rain throughout Saturday.
Heavy wind and rain signaled the approach of Hurricane Matthew after it ravaged Caribbean countries earlier this week. Miami’s residents braced themselves for the storm on Thursday, taking heed of a general evacuation order from Florida Governor Rick Scott. The states of Florida and South Carolina, as well as parts of North Carolina and Georgia, have declared a state of emergency, with millions of coastal residents warned to be ready to evacuate their homes. According to Haitian authorities, at least 100 people were killed by Hurricane Matthew as a result of massive flooding and severe winds brought by the Category 4 storm as it left a trail of devastation through the impoverished island nation of Haiti earlier in the week. Thousands of people have had their homes completely or partially destroyed.
At least 23 people have been killed as a result of massive flooding and severe winds brought by Category 4 storm Hurricane Matthew as it left a trail of devastation through the impoverished island nation of Haiti over the past few days. Thousands of people have had their homes completely or partially destroyed. The storm is moving north and its effects are expected to strike the southern coast of Florida on Thursday evening as a Category 4 storm with severe gales of up to 125 miles per hour. Even if the storm does not make landfall, which is when the eye of the hurricane passes over land, the powerful winds and torrential rain brought by the arms will cause significant damage. Florida Governor Rick Scott called for a general evacuation for residents living in the expected path of Hurricane Matthew.
Footage courtesy of Foundation Marie shows the flooding caused by Hurricane Matthew after the Category 4 hurricane made landfall on Haiti and slammed into the impoverished island country with winds of up to 145 miles per hour. At least two people were killed, dozens injured, and homes destroyed. Some 55,000 Haitians are still living in temporary shelters, as the country has not quite recovered from the earthquake in 2010.
