Jeanne, Florida’s fourth hurricane in six weeks, piled on destruction in already ravaged areas, slicing across the state with howling wind that rocketed debris from earlier storms and torrents of rain that turned streets into rivers.

AT least three people died and more than a million were left without power yesterday after Hurricane Jeanne hit Florida’s east coast.

Hurricane Jeanne lashed Florida’s Atlantic Coast early today with 120mph winds and drenching rains, putting the weather-weary state in the record books.
