Florence began as a disturbance but it gained strength and crossed the threshold from tropical storm to hurricane in a matter of days. Later, it became a fearsome Category 4 hurricane with winds of 130 mph. Although Florence made landfall near Wrightsville, North Carolina, slowed down, it caused heavy rainfall and devastating flooding. The storm flooded the state shutting down power plants, breaching coal ash ponds and flooding hog and chicken farms causing extensive environmental damage.Locations:North America-North Carolina-United States of AmericaDate:19 Sep, 2018Credit:© Jason Miczek / GreenpeaceLatitude:34°35'8.34"NMaximum size:4500px X 3000pxLongitude79°0'1.08"WKeywords:Aerial view-Climate (campaign title)-Climate change-Climate change impacts-Day-Destruction-Disasters-Floods-Hurricanes-KWCI (GPI)-Outdoors-Power stationsShoot:Hurricane Florence Aftermath in North CarolinaFlooding in North Carolina after Hurricane Florence.
