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.

Thousands of people have had their homes completely or partially destroyed.
