Hurricane Emily wreaks destruction across Grenada
The storm, which strengthened to a Category 2 hurricane as it moved across the Windward Islands, tore the roofs off hospitals and other buildings, destroying crops and causing widespread flooding.
Emily struck hard in Grenada, especially in the two northern parishes, St Patrick's and St Andrew's, and the outlying islands of Carriacou and Petite Martinique, authorities said. The damage comes as the island nation is still recovering from last year's devastating Hurricane Ivan.
