One topic on the news that has been worrying many Americans is hurricane Irene. After the past devastating hurricanes hit on the coast and southeast United States, Americans started to get involved by volunteering to help or joining relief efforts to save and help other Americans. In the past decade there have been many hurricanes that have destroyed an entire area. The most infamous was Katrina, which was the sixth deadliest hurricane in United States history. Who doesn't remember seeing it all over the news and people making signs on top of their houses for help?
Because of these past hurricanes, Americans are now ready for the upcoming ones. They've done their research, helped others, and joined organizations to help others who have experienced hurricanes. Not every single person might evacuate or board up their windows, but most of them will. The area where the hurricane hits might be destroyed, but with past experiences and new knowledge, rebuilding these areas will become easier.
