Hurricane Irma has spent the past day and a half wreaking havoc in the Caribbean. Irma is now a Category 5 storm, the strongest possible designation, and has featured wind speeds of 185 mph.
At least 10 people have died in the storm, dozens are injured, and thousands have been left homeless.
It has ravaged four countries in the region and is headed for more. Ultimately the storm is headed for the US. Its power is expected to diminish to that of a Category 4 storm, but it could still cause huge devastation.
After that the storm approached the US territory of Puerto Rico.
The island is larger, and had a lot more photographers than the others, so there are more pictures of the storm in action.
Rescuers checked flooded cars in case anybody had not managed to escape.
No deaths have been reported on Puerto Rico so far.
