Rescue workers inundated as Puerto Rico recovers from strongest hurricane in over 80 years

Rescuers are hard at work today after Hurricane Maria ravaged Puerto Rico, knocking out electricity to the entire island and triggering landslides and floods.

The extent of the damage is unknown given that dozens of municipalities remained isolated and without communication after Maria hit the island on Wednesday morning as a category four storm with 155 mph winds, the strongest hurricane to hit Puerto Rico in over 80 years.
